✦ Synopsis

Abstract

An imaging method is presented to measure the water‐diffusion coefficient. The sequence (MISSTEC) uses the simultaneous acquisition of a spin echo and several stimulated echoes with the same intensity except for diffusion weighting. The optimal number of stimulated echoes was calculated to minimize the diffusion coefficient error (D). D values obtained in vitro and in vivo were in good agreement with those from the spin‐echo sequence (Intra Voxel Incoherent Motion [IVIM] method). The total acquisition time is half that of the classic IVIM method.

## Abstract The inherent distortions in echo‐planar imaging that arise due to inhomogeneities in the static magnetic field can lead to difficulties when attempting to obtain structurally accurate diffusion‐tensor imaging data. Parallel acceleration techniques can reduce the magnitude of these disto

In this paper we present a pulse sequence that combines a displacement-encoded stimulated echo with rapid sampling of k-space by means of turbo spin echo imaging. The stimulated echo enables the use of long observation times between the two pulsed field gradients that sample q-space completely. Prop
