A robust and fast phase unwrapping strategy was developed for multi-echo SWI, to improve image quality where classic SWI fails, such as cavity vicinity regions, as well as to provide pristine field map for subsequent QSM applications. A smoothing and a seed prioritizing method were proposed, which was demonstrated to provide very robust unwrapping on phase difference map between neighboring echoes. And with a high quality unwrapped phase difference map, the phase of all echoes can be robustly unwrapped in seconds.
