AQSES-MRSI is a new quantification method for MRSI data, which exploits spatial prior knowledge. During an MRSI acquisition, MR spectra are measured in a grid of voxels. In AQSES-MRSI the assumption is that adjacent voxels should have signals with similar spectral parameters and therefore the signal from each voxel is quantified using information coming from the spectral parameters (frequency shifts, damping corrections, phase shifts, etc) of the surrounding voxels.
