In our previous studies, we introduced Active-Contrast Encoding MRI (ACE-MRI) which measures both B 1 and T 1 values along with kinetic parameters from a single DCE-MRI data. The model free approach of ACE-MRI we proposed separates estimation of B 1 /T 1 from estimation of contrast kinetic parameters, and consequently improves parameter estimation accuracy and precision. This in vivo cross-validation study was conducted to compare the contrast kinetic parameters estimated from ACE-MRI data with those estimated from conventional DCE-MRI experiments with separate measurements of B 1 and T 1 .
