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.
