Abstract

A learning-based magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) reconstruction method for reconstructing an MR image of a tissue space in an MR scan subject for a particular MR sequence is disclosed. The method involves using a machine-learning algorithm that has been trained to generate a set of tissue parameters from acquired MR signal evolution without using a dictionary or dictionary matching.
