A multi-echo MPRAGE sequence with radial fan-beam segments is demonstrated at 3 T. The radial fan-beam sampling scheme permits any number of encoding steps by adjusting the fan size for each inversion segment, which allows longer echo time for magnetic susceptibility contrast. Simultaneous T1-weighted image, R2* map, and QSM were successfully extracted from the single acquisition and were compared with images reconstructed from standard single-echo MPRAGE and multi-echo GRE acquisitions.
