A model-based technique is proposed for water/fat-separated multi-echo PRF-shift MR thermometry that leverages recent advancements in water/fat separation to achieve high-quality signal separations while maintaining real-time-compatible compute times. The method is validated in simulations and compared to 3-point Dixon-based temperature maps in canine prostate temperature maps during a transurethral focused ultrasound ablation.
