We evaluate the use of kd-tree (a space partitioning data structure) to speed-up the matching process in magnetic resonance fingerprinting. We found that, in combination with PCA reduction, the matching time can be reduced by 2 to 3 order of magnitude while preserving the accuracy. The matching time, however, increases with noise level and the PCA threshold remains a key element to tune to achieve the best performance.
