An algorithm for IDEAL spiral CSI reconstruction of hyperpolarized 13C metabolites is presented. It calculates field maps or CS frequencies and metabolite images with a joint estimation approach. The field maps gets estimated by a set of polynomials. The estimation of the CS-frequencies decreases the number of necessary excitations, because no extra spectra have to be recorded. The application of the off-resonance correction on in-vivo datasets has shown, that this approach increases the image quality due to a reduced amount of blurring in the metabolite maps.
