Accurate mapping of T
2
relaxation
values in vivo is highly challenging in clinical
settings. This work integrates two techniques:
(1)
a
recently-developed T
2
mapping
technique the echo-modulation curve (
EMC
)
algorithm which is immune to the T
2
bias
caused by indirect coherence pathways in multi spin-echo
protocols, and
(2)
non-linear
model-based reconstruction of radially sampled datasets
allowing to overcome undersampling-related aliasing
artifacts. The synergistic combination of the two
provides accelerated scanner- and parameter-invariant
quantification of T
2
relaxation,
and morphological proton-density information at
sub-millimeter spatial resolutions and reduced motion
sensitivity.
