MRI is not only capable of quantifying the fat content, but also the fatty acid composition of human adipose tissue. Especially for low fat fractions, fatty acid quantification is sensitive to image noise. Including prior information or additional parameter approximations into the quantification method helped to improve the noise propagation behavior, but also introduced a systematic bias. Performing spectral denoising in between image reconstruction and fatty acid quantification kept the systematic bias as well as the noise in the parameter maps low, and hence allows for more flexible protocol selection and shorter acquisition times.
