Selective suppression of a given resonance in an NMR image can be obtained with a i ~/ 2 pulse whose excitation spectrum is zero at the appropriate chemical shift. The selective 7r/2 pulse presented here is composed of two nonselective i ~/ 2 pulses of opposite phase. The two pulses are separated by

✦ Synopsis
The phase-encoded echo-planar (PEEP) technique, a variant of echo-planar imaging, is used to achieve simultaneous high-speed spatial and chemical-shift data acquisition. This technique is the 2DFT equivalent of the projection reconstruction echo-planar method for chemical-shift imaging. Examples of images and spectra obtained using the PEEP method are presented.

The hybrid technique of projection-reconstruction echo-planar (PREP) imaging for obtaining chemical-shift images is demonstrated experimentally using a fluorine sample. The technique which is a variation on echo-planar imaging (EPI) relies on a multipass procedure. It is nevertheless quite efficient

## Abstract Steady‐state free precession (SSFP) methods have been very successful due to their high signal and short imaging times. These properties make them good candidates for applications that intrinsically suffer from low signal such as low gamma nuclei imaging. A new chemical shift imaging (C
