Brain tumor dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) MRI is adversely impacted by T1 and T2∗ contrast agent leakage effects that result in inaccurate hemodynamic metrics. While multi‐echo acquisitions remove T1 leakage effects, there is no consensus on the optimal set of acquisition parameters. Using a computational approach, we systematically evaluated a wide range of acquisition strategies to determine the optimal multi‐echo DSC‐MRI perfusion protocol.
