We developed a fast method to obtain relaxation maps in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) based on two inversion recovery acquisitions and a reference acquisition, while maintaining high sensitivity by utilizing the full dynamic range of the MRI signal. Optimal inversion times for estimating in the human brain were predicted using standard error propagation theory.In vivomeasurements on nine healthy volunteers yielded values of in gray matter and in white matter, in reasonable agreement with literature values using conventional approaches. The proposed method should be useful for clinical studies because the maps can be obtained within a few seconds.
