Human cortical areas are typically differentiated by functions with varying cyto- and myelo- architectures. Since quantitative MR tissue properties, such as T1, T2 and susceptibility, reflect underlying molecular compositions and micro-environment of tissues, multiple quantitative imaging methods have been used to investigate human cortical microstructure at 7T. Here, we used the FSL image analysis tool to process multi-parametric quantitative maps and demonstrated that high resolution multi-parametric maps acquired from a single MR Fingerprinting (MRF) scan at 3T can reveal similar patterns of cyto-architectural information that are typically identified at 7T.
