In conventional T1rho imaging, the fat signal is usually suppressed to avoid image artifacts and quantification errors. It is desirable to acquire both water and fat images for certain diseases. In this work, we present an approach to use spectrally selective spin-lock pulses to achieve T1rho quantification with simultaneous fat-water imaging. The theoretical analysis is provided with proof on numerical phantoms.
