Abstract

An efficient scheme for fast three dimensional acquisition of sodium MR images is described. This scheme relies on the use of three dimensional k‐space trajectories with constant sample density to achieve significant (60–70%) reductions in total data acquisition time over conventional projection imaging schemes. The performance of this data acquisition scheme is demonstrated with acquisition of sodium data sets on phantoms and normal human volunteers at 1.5 and 3.0 Tesla. The experimental results demonstrate that high quality three dimensional sodium images (0.2 cc voxel size, 10:1 signal‐to‐noise ratio) can be acquired at clinical field strengths (1.5 Tesla) in under 10 min.

The RARE method is based on the principle of echo imaging to generate images with high T2 contrast. Since RARE is a fast imaging method, it can be used to acquire a highresolution three-dimensional data set in less than 15 min. Thin slices from such a threedimensional data set provide detailed infor
