Slice profile and B1 corrections in 2D magnetic resonance fingerprinting

The goal of this study is to characterize and improve the accuracy of 2D magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF) scans in the presence of slice profile (SP) and B1 imperfections, which are two main factors that affect quantitative results in MRF.
