The contribution presents a new method for estimation of the arterial input function in dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI. A new parametric AIF model is introduced and a new blind multichannel deconvolution scheme is proposed. The esimated AIF is then used to provide perfusion-parameter maps. The method is evaluated on synthetic and real mouse data.
