Due to their short read-out time single-shot techniques are frequently used for several imaging modalities but they are prone to static B0 off-resonance artifacts. To avoid separately acquired field maps joint estimation of the object and the B0 map has been proposed as a potential solution alternating between updating an object and a field map guess. A measure to compare cost functions is introduced and two different joint estimation cost functions are investigated whereby a new cost function in image space is suggested. It shows its potential if only a less reliable B0 map guess is given.
