MR fingerprinting (MRF) is a rapid method for quantifying multiple tissue properties. However, estimation errors can increase when systematic imperfections including RF and gradient coils exist. In this study, we analyzed estimation errors from non-ideal slice profile and gradient delay by simulation. Our results showed that these systematic imperfections can cause significant errors in parameter estimation.
