    摘要: A method and a system for estimating a longitudinal relaxation time in magnetic resonance imaging. The method includes scanning at least one object to form a sequence of data with a plurality of flip angles; regressing linearly the formed sequence of data based on a first signal intensity model associated with the flip angles to obtain an initial estimation for said longitudinal relaxation time; and regressing nonlinearly the formed sequence of data based on a second signal intensity model associated with the flip angles so as to obtain a final estimation for the longitudinal relaxation time, in which the initial estimation is used as an initial guess for the longitudinal relaxation time based on the second signal intensity model.
