Large FOV Zero Echo-Time (ZTE) has been challenging due to chemical shift artifacts, caused primarily by fat water dephasing, for low readout band-widths (rBW). To correct for this Perfect In-Phase ZTE (pipZTE) is proposed where the chemical shift artifact is removed by acquiring data from multiple rBWs, and then separating the signal into an in-phase and off-resonance compartment in the reconstruction. In this work we explore the performance and properties of the pipZTE approach when scanning large FOV and demanding subjects.
