In this work the parallel imaging methods slice-Caipirinha and 2D-Caipirinha were combined to (2+1)D-Caipirinha in order to simulate an acceleration of two-slice Hadamard encoded MRSI data of the brain at 7T. The proposed method was compared to standard in-plane acceleration and a reconstruction using 2D-GRAPPA. (2+1)D-Caipirinha was shown to be superior over the standard 2D-GRAPPA acceleration. The original 60 minutes scan could have been reduced with an acceleration factor of 8.7 to clinically relevant scan times of 7 minutes, while still providing enough SNR to quantify tNAA, tCho and tCr.
