## Abstract Distinguishing between lipid and water‐containing tissues is clinically important. Current techniques rely on the chemical shift difference between fat and water resonances or differences in relaxation times of the tissues, or a combination of both. A method is presented for separating

## Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging is frequently complicated by the presence of motion and susceptibility gradients. Also, some biologic tissues have short T2s. These problems are particularly troublesome in fast spin‐echo (FSE) imaging, in which T2 decay and motion between echoes result in ima
Multi-shot echo-planar ¯uid-attenuated inversion-recovery (EPI-Flair) was compared with spin-echo T1-weighted (SE-T1W), fast SE T2weighted (FSE-T2W), and fast Flair (F-Flair) in imaging brain tumors. In 32 patients with various different brain tumors, three reviewers independently evaluated image qu
In order to reduce the acquisition time, we compared a three-dimensional multi-shot echo-planar imaging (EPI) sequence with fatsuppression with two widely used sequences, the fat-suppressed gradient echo (GRE) and the proton-density weighted turbo spin-echo (FSE) in imaging the menisci of the knee.
## Abstract We introduce a multi‐echo multi‐slice MR proton spectroscopic imaging method, which allows for a dramatic reduction of the measurement time by acquiring multiple spin‐echoes within a single repetition time. In the multi‐echo multi‐slice experiment discussed in this paper, a threefold re
## Abstract Preliminary work has demonstrated that dynamic contrast material—enhanced magnetic resonance imaging improves the detection sensitivity for pituitary microadenomas. The authors present a new method of obtaining dynamic contrastenhanced pituitary images with a short TR/TE fast spin‐echo
