High-resolution T1 maps are measured over the whole human brain with proton FID-MRSI with incremental flip-angles. MRSI datasets with multiple flip-angles are reconstructed simultaneously through a low-rank-total generalized variation model and T1 values are determined by fit of the steady state magnetization with B1 inhomogeneity correction. Twofold compressed-sensing acceleration enables acquisition of a single flip-angle in 5 min and resulting in acquisition of 3 flip-angles in 15 min. Precise determination of T1 would enables an accurate correction of signal loss and might provide important information on brain micro-structure.
