This work report a MRI method able to quantify both fat content and fatty acid composition on preclinical systems at 7.0T. MR acquisition was based on a spoiled multiple gradient echoes sequence with bipolar readout gradient. After phase unwrapping, complex images were rebuilt. By using a model including water and eight fat resonances each expressed according to ndb, nmidb and CL, parametric images such as PDFF, SFA, MUFA and PUFA were reconstructed. Results suggest that it possible to follow diet effects on fat content and fatty acid compositions in mice with this method.
