Abstract
Echo planar spectroscopic imaging (EPSI) allows for mapping one spatial dimension and the spectroscopic dimension in a single readout. Modern clinical magnetic resonance imaging scanners are becoming widely equipped with echo planar imaging gradient capabilities. Thus there exists an enormous potential for EPSI to facilitate clinical magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Here, a pedagogical analysis of how the spectral and spatial encoding occur within EPSI is provided along with demonstrations of the technique and a discussion of the inherent signalβtoβnoise limitations.βΒ© 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.βConcepts Magn Reson 13: 213β237, 2001

## Abstract A technique for discriminating a lactate signal from overlapping lipid signals in ^1^H spectroscopic imaging is presented. It is based on __J__βcoupling between lactate protons and on the broad spectral bandwidth of lipid signal. Measurement parameters used in the technique are determin
A new ultrafast magnetic resonance imaging pulse sequence named radial echo-planar imaging (rEPI) is introduced. The sequence is based on a modification of the echo-planar imaging (EPI) sequence to scan k-space radially, in an attempt to combine the speed of EPI with the benefits of radial sampling.
