Comparison of g-factors obtained by coil sensitivity profile and SNRnoRF. All the g-maps were from data acquired with an RF excitation angle of 20°. For SNRnoRF, ROI size of 10×10 was used to calculate the g-factor. The average and standard deviation were measured within the center area of 60×54 pixels in the g-map.
