We developed an optimized region growing algorithm for phase correction that includes jointly considering the two candidate vectors in selecting the final output vector for each pixel during the region growing and an automated segmentation to handle spatially isolated objects. The algorithm was implemented and evaluated for water and fat separation for in vivo two-point Dixon imaging with flexible echo times.
