## Abstract The authors prospectively compared four T2‐weighted magnetic resonance (MR) sequences, including high‐resolution 512 × 512 (matrix size) RARE (rapid acquisition with relaxation enhancement), 256 × 256 RARE, 128 × 256 breath‐hold RARE, and 192 × 256 fat‐suppressed spin‐echo (T2FS) sequen

## Abstract ## Purpose To compare the abilities of T2‐weighted (T2W) imaging using respiratory‐triggered fast spin‐echo (RT‐FSE), breathhold fast‐recovery FSE (BH‐FRFSE), and BH single‐shot FSE (BH‐SSFSE) sequences without an endorectal coil to detect rectosigmoid carcinomas. ## Materials and Met
## Abstract In 49 patients who had pelvic abnormalities, breath‐hold T2‐weighted fast‐recovery (FR)‐fast spin‐echo (FSE) (imaging time = 24 sec) and nonbreath‐hold FSE MR images (2 min 8 sec) were compared qualitatively (on a four‐point scale) and quantitatively (using signal‐to‐noise ratios (SNRs)
## Abstract ## Purpose To compare the usefulness of short inversion recovery (STIR) and T1‐weighted, contrast‐enhanced, fat‐suppressed (T1W‐CEFS) sequences for the evaluation of bone tumors. ## Materials and Methods Eighteen patients with 19 bone tumors who underwent both STIR and T1W‐CEFS imagi
