Abstract

The present application provides a system and method for quantifying perfusion using a dictionary matching approach. In some aspects, the method comprises performing a predetermined pulse sequence using an MRI system to acquire MRI data from the subject after having delivered a dose of a contrast agent to the subject. The method also includes comparing the MRI data to a dictionary to determine perfusion information, and generating, using the perfusion information, a report indicative of perfusion within the subject.
