A comparative analysis between IR-bSSFP and MR Fingerprinting was performed in numerical simulations for single and multi-component parameter mapping. The single component matching works for both methods, although the accuracy for T2 is better for MR Fingerprinting. The multi component matching for a constant flip angle IR-bSSFP sequence can only match to the T1* values and cannot distinguish between the underlying T1/T2 values. Using the MR Fingerprinting sequence with a varying flip angle it is possible to match to the T1/T2 components.
