A simple modification of FLASH (Fast Low Angle SHot) MR imaging, which results in a variable reduction of the intensity of flowing blood and flow artifacts in transaxial tomograms, is reported. Here a nonselective radiofrequency pulse of variable flip angle is used before the acquisition of each pro

MR images based on gradient echoes are sensitive to artifacts caused by inhomogeneities of the static magnetic field. This paper describes the effects of local gradients in rapid FLASH MR images and presents a way of directly imaging affected areas. The idea is to compensate for signal losses due to
A method of 31P FLASH NMR imaging is described using a low flip angle excitation pulse and three-dimensional Fourier transform spectroscopic imaging (3DFT). In vivo high-resolution 31P NMR spectra are obtained for each of 32 x 32 image elements using a minimum measuring time of 1.5 min. 31P FLASH im
