## Abstract ## Purpose: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)‐enhanced fluid‐attenuated inversion‐recovery echo‐planar imaging (FLAIR EPI) for malignant liver tumors with that of T2‐weighted turbo spin‐echo (TSE), T2\*‐weighted gradient‐echo (GRE), and diffusion

In 22 patients with a diverse range of thoracic abnormalities, T2-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) images of the chest were obtained with electrocardiograph (ECG)-triggered turbo spin-echo (TSE), ECG-triggered conventional spin-echo (CSE), and nontriggered TSE sequences, and the images were compared
## Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of multishot echo‐planar imaging in detecting liver tumors in comparison with respiratory triggered T2‐weighted fast‐spin‐echo (FSE) imaging. Thirty‐two patients with 70 focal liver lesions were imaged using a 1.5‐T high speed MR
## Abstract The purpose of this study was to quantitatively compare the hepatic contrast characteristics of conventional spin‐echo (CSE) and fast spin‐echo (FSE) sequences with breath‐hold T2‐weighted images acquired with half‐Fourier turbo spin echo (HASTE). Forty‐five patients were examined with
