A multi-parametric technique, 3D QALAS, accelerated using compressed sensing, was implemented to yield images of the brain at high spatial resolution of 1mm isotropic with multiple contrast weightings as well as parametric maps from a single scan. Compressed sensing factor of 1.5 combined with parallel imaging was used to accelerate scan time. The proposed 3D technique is expected to achieve both stable image quality and tissue segmentation accuracy with short imaging time.
