Parameter maps obtained from Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) are sensitive to magnetic field inhomogeneities. Most MRF publications are based on FISP to minimize the dependency on B0. In FISP however, the magnetization is spoiled at the end of every TR resulting in lower T2 differentiation capability and SNR compared to TrueFISP. We propose an MRF variant that applies TrueFISP, FISP and FLASH in a continuous acquisition, and additionally incorporates B1 and B0 in the dictionary, which are resolved by a pattern match. This implementation enables increased spiral resolution and spiral deblurring with the derived high-resolution B0 maps.
