A method for echo planar imaging dynamic B0 field correction based on phase unwrapping is presented. For gradient-echo functional studies, the phase of the natively acquired images is used to estimate the accumulated B0-induced dephasing. For spin-echo diffusion, a matched echo planar imaging field echo navigator is acquired after the spin-echo readout so that motion-induced phase components can be subtracted before unwrapping. Application to both functional and diffusion in-vivo 3T fetal brain imaging is illustrated.
