## Abstract Single shot (SS) rapid acquisition with relaxation enhancement (RARE) and half Fourier SSβRARE (HFSSβRARE, HASTE, or SSβFSE) sequences allow ultrafast imaging acquisition and generate high imaging quality. Images can be acquired within a very short time, without artifacts from physiolog
So that we might evaluate the ultrafast half-Fourier single-shot turbo spin-echo (HASTE) sequence in T2-weighted MRI of the female pelvis and compare it with the turbo spin-echo (TSE) sequence, we prospectively studied 60 consecutive females with suspected abnormalities of the pelvis. For all MR exa
