## Abstract Technical aspects of a new rapid 2D multiplanar phase contrast angiographic sequence are presented. The sequence uses multiple excitation echo planar imaging concepts. The advantage of using multiple excitations is that the resolution can be increased over that obtainable with single sh
A new ultrafast magnetic resonance imaging pulse sequence named radial echo-planar imaging (rEPI) is introduced. The sequence is based on a modification of the echo-planar imaging (EPI) sequence to scan k-space radially, in an attempt to combine the speed of EPI with the benefits of radial sampling.
After an introduction to Fourier NMR imaging, the effect of magnetic field inhomogeneity on image quality is discussed. The field inhomogeneity leads to a distortion of the image when the reciprocal space is sampled on an oblique plane. This effect is especially strong in echo-planar imaging (EPI),
