Magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) offers rapid simultaneous multi-parametric quantification, and also provides the potential to generate maps of other parameters. We have developed a novel scheme named "Multi-Preparation MRF" (MP-MRF) that implements adaptable magnetization preparations periodically during the dynamic MRF acquisition. Our initial simulations of the MP-MRF methodology show sensitivity to diffusion and perfusion contrast and reasonable estimates of T1, T2, and velocity in Shepp-Logan phantoms.
