Abstract
Purpose This study aims to increase the precision of single‐compartment DESPOT relaxometry by two means: (i) a joint system relaxometry (JSR) approach that estimates parameters in a single step using all available data; and (ii) optimizing acquisition parameters by deploying a robust design tool based on the Crámer‐Rao lower bound (CRLB). Methods Following the development of the analysis and design capabilities, phantom and four in vivo subject...
