## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the efficacy of ferucarbotran in T2βweighted (T2W) fast spinβecho (FSE) and T2\*W gradientβecho (GRE) sequences for characterizing focal liver lesions. ## Materials and Methods In 68 patients, 46 malignant and 22 benign focal liver lesions were evaluated. Preco
## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate breathhold gradientβ and spinβecho (GRASE) T2βweighted imaging for the detection and characterization of focal liver lesions. ## Materials and Methods Two GRASE sequences with different echo times (75 and 90 msec, GRASE~75~ and GRASE~90~) were compared with res
## Abstract Echo planar MR imaging (EPI) has been developed to completely eliminate motion artifacts and is currently being prepared for implementation into clinical MR systems. Thus, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical utility of EPI in the detection of focal liver lesions and t
