We present a 3D MR fingerprinting (MRF) sequence for simultaneous T1 and T2 mapping in mouse. Data acquisition and reconstruction covered a field of view (FOV) of 30 × 30 × 9 mm3 with a matrix size of 128 x 128 x 9, yielding a spatial resolution of 0.23 × 0.23 × 1 mm3. Retrospective undersampling analysis was performed on fully-sampled phantom and mouse data to examine the undersampling capacity of the proposed sequence, demonstrating that the method supports up to 16-fold in-plane undersampling with a 3-fold through-plane undersampling.
