A novel method to obtain separate fat and water images is presented. It is based on the replacement of the first echo generating pi pulse by two pi/2 pulses separated by a time delay corresponding to one-half cycle of the resonance frequency difference between fat and water protons.

## Abstract __T__‐weighted functional MR images are plagued by signal loss artifacts caused by susceptibility‐induced through‐plane dephasing. We present major advances to the original three‐dimensional tailored RF (3DTRF) pulse method that pre‐compensates the dephasing using three‐dimensional sele
