Abstract
Systems and methods for simultaneous water-fat magnetic resonance imaging ('MRI') and magnetic resonance elastography ('MRE') using an integrated data acquisition and reconstruction scheme are described. This integrated acquisition and reconstruction technique can mitigate motion misregistration and provide improved image SNR relative to existing multiparametric acquisition techniques that require multiple separate acquisitions.
