    Abstract:
    Magnetic field inhomogeneity is a long-standing problem in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopic imaging (MRSI). Specifically, in MRSI, field inhomogeneity, if not corrected, can cause frequency shifts, line broadening, and lineshape distortions in the spectral peaks. This paper addresses the problem of correcting the field inhomogeneity effects on limited k-space MRSI data. A penalized maximum-likelihood method is proposed, which enables the use of anatomical constraints for improving the correction performance with only limited k-space data. Simulation results are shown to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
