MRI using 3D stack-of-spirals (SoS) readout on a high-performance gradient system is subject to strong second-order, spatially varying concomitant fields, which can lead to signal dropout and blurring artifacts that become more significant at locations farther from the gradient isocenter. A method for compensating for second-order concomitant fields in 3D axial SoS image reconstruction is described.
