VARPRO-ICM
was previously introduced as a Dixon
processing formulation that was able to handle the very large field
inhomogeneities seen at 7T. However, long processing times have prevented
this formulation from achieving practical use. In this abstract, we present
image processing improvements that decrease the processing times required to
solve the VARPRO-ICM formulation by a factor of about 70.
