Current phase correction techniques in multi-dimensional spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) do not take into account the spatio-temporal nature of phase errors because they were designed for single voxel methods. This work categorizes phase errors in 4D MRSI (2D spatial+2D spectral) as time, space, or space and time varying, and proposes a post-processing pipeline that decouples these errors so they are removed in the appropriate domain. The Interleaved Navigator Scan corrected Echo-Planar J-Resolved Spectroscopic Imaging (INSEP-JRESI) sequence is proposed. Results from gray matter phantom scans using this new sequence and pipeline demonstrate the viability of this technique compared to MRSI-adapted Klose's methods.
