✦ Synopsis


Sensitivity encoding in two spatial dimensions (2D SENSE) with a receiver coil array is discussed as a means of improving the encoding efficiency of three-dimensional (3D) Fourier MRI. It is shown that in Fourier imaging with two phase encoding directions, 2D SENSE has key advantages over one-dimensional parallel imaging approaches. By exploiting two dimensions for hybrid encoding, the conditioning of the reconstruction problem can be considerably improved, resulting in superior signal-tonoise behavior. As a consequence, 2D SENSE permits greater scan time reduction, which particularly benefits the inherently time-consuming 3D techniques.

Along with the principles of 2D SENSE imaging, the properties of the technique are discussed and investigated by means of simulations. Special attention is given to the role of the coil configuration, yielding practical setups with four and six coils. The in vivo feasibility of the two-dimensional approach is demonstrated for 3D head imaging, permitting four-fold scan time reduction.

## Abstract When using parallel MRI (pMRI) methods in combination with three‐dimensional (3D) imaging, it is beneficial to subsample the __k__‐space along both phase‐encoding directions because one can then take advantage of coil sensitivity variations along two spatial dimensions. This results in

Three-dimensionally localized versions of several two-dimensional NMR sequences have been implemented on a 1.5 T whole-body MRI/MRS scanner. In addition to the localization of voxels, the slice-selective RF pulses were also used for refocusing/transfer of various coherences in the 2D NMR sequences.

## Abstract This work demonstrates that the principles underlying phase‐contrast MRI may be used to encode spatial rather than flow information along a perpendicular dimension, if this dimension contains an MRI‐visible object at only one spatial location. In particular, the situation applies to 3D
