Data were acquired in gel phantoms, 8 images per set, matrix 128 × 128, T1 limit 1500, T2 limit 200) using three different noise levels (level 0: curve fitting is performed for all pixels; levels 10 and 40: pixels with signal intensities below 10 or 40 in any of the source images are excluded from curve fitting and set to zero).
