MP2RAGE is a B₁-insensitive T₁-weighted imaging and T₁ mapping method with strong background noise. Introducing a regularization parameter into the reconstruction can suppress the noise at the cost of lowering the signal intensity and T₁ value. We propose a robust MP2RAGE using a signal-dependent regularization function. The reconstructed images are nearly bias-free with minimal artifact and reduced background noise.
