Steady-state free precession (SSFP) is a rapid gradient-echo imaging technique that has recently gained popularity and is used in a variety of applications, including cardiac and real-time imaging, because of its high signal and favorable contrast between blood and myocardium. The purpose of this wo

## Abstract A novel balanced SSFP technique for the separation or suppression of different resonance frequencies (e.g., fat suppression) is presented. The method is based on applying two alternating and different repetition times, TR~1~ and TR~2~. This RF scheme manipulates the sensitivity of balan
## Abstract Although balanced steady‐state free precession (bSSFP) imaging yields high signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) efficiency, the bright lipid signal is often undesirable. The bSSFP spectrum can be shaped to suppress the fat signal with scan‐efficient alternating repetition time (ATR) bSSFP. Howev
## Abstract A novel concept for visualization of positive contrast originating from susceptibility‐related magnetic field distortions is presented. In unbalanced steady‐state free precession (SSFP) the generic, gradient‐induced dephasing competes with local gradient fields generated by paramagnetic
## Abstract Balanced‐steady‐state free precession (b‐SSFP) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) encompasses several recently developed methods that utilize b‐SSFP acquisition for fMRI. Short repetition time (__T__~R~) and readout durations of b‐SSFP allow distortion‐free acquisition, 3D ima
