Optimization of multidimensional MR data acquisition for relaxation and diffusion.

Multidimensional MR experiments of relaxation and diffusion have been successful for material characterization and have attracted attention recently for biomedical applications. However, such experiments typically require many scans of data acquisition and are time‐consuming. This work discusses a method for systematic optimization of the pulse‐sequence parameters to obtain optimal resolution within the experimental conditions, such as the number of acquisitions. Other optimization goals can also be incorporated in this framework. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
