Model-based super-resolution reconstruction of T-2 maps

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Reto Meuli, Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Mohammad Golbabaee, Gian Franco Piredda

Purpose High-resolution isotropic T-2 mapping of the human brain with multi-echo spin-echo (MESE) acquisitions is challenging. When using a 2D sequence, the resolution is limited by the slice thickness. If used as a 3D acquisition, specific absorption rate ...
