This study shows the feasibility of rapid multiparametric measurement in vivo using 31P MRS fingerprinting scheme.
Figure 2 shows the representative MRF fitting using phantom and in vivo experiment.
Figure 3 SNR evaluation for 5 measured metabolites in MRS-FP experiment. Scanning time can be shortened up to 2min without compensation of measurement reliability
