Magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) offers rapid
simultaneous multi-parametric quantification, and also
provides the potential to generate maps of other
parameters. We have developed a novel scheme named
"Multi-Preparation MRF" (MP-MRF) that implements
adaptable magnetization preparations periodically during
the dynamic MRF acquisition. Our initial simulations of
the MP-MRF methodology show sensitivity to diffusion and
perfusion contrast and reasonable estimates of T1, T2,
and velocity in Shepp-Logan phantoms.
