Abstract

This paper describes a method that prepares the longitudinal magnetization with T~2~* weighting for subsequent acquisition. The main advantage of our technique is its insensitivity to static: field inhomogeneity. We have combined this approach with, an ultrafast gradient‐echo (Turbo‐FLASH) sequence and conducted experiments on phantoms and volunteers to demonstrate its capability and utility. With such a technique a T~2~*‐weighted image can be generated in less than a second. In the paper, the detail of the technique and experimental results are presented.
