Bias field correction is an essential prerequisite for image analysis, especially at high field strength. In this study multiple correction methods, based on acquisition of a reference image and computational approaches with varied input parameters, are compared. The results indicate that acquisition of a conventional MPRAGE corrected by SPM yields quantitatively and qualitatively comparable results to acquiring a reference image (e.g. MP2RAGE), however, scan time is up to halfed.
