³¹P MRSI enables the imaging of important components of the energy and cell membrane metabolism but suffers from low intrinsic sensitivity. In this work, we tested the LORA and CLORA low-rank noise reduction approaches to improve the quality of 3D ³¹P MRSI data and present first in vivo results for ³¹P MRSI acquired from the human brain at ultrahigh field strength of 9.4 T.
