Echo-planar diffusion-weighted images can display significant geometric distortions due to eddy current fields. Several preparation schemes have been proposed, which can null eddy currents with a single time constant. The aim of this work was to compare the performance of three such pulse sequences

โฆ Synopsis
We present the results of the experimental investigations of the transient processes preceding the establishment of quasistationary states in multiple-pulse nuclear quadrupole resonance. It is shown that the inversion of the phase of radio frequency pulses in the pulse sequence or an extra pulse produces the echo signal in the effective field of the multiple-pulse sequence (the echo on the envelope of echo signals). The train of the echo signals in the effective field is also obtained. The application of this technique for the investigation of the dipole-dipole interactions in spin systems with large inhomogeneous broadening is discussed. 0 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
