## Abstract The overall effects of intravenous GdβDTPA on tissue signal in intracranial tumors are complex depending on dose, time of administration, pulse sequence, and tissue structure. Ultrahigh speed EPI permits the kinetics of tissue enhancement in intracranial tumors to be studied during the

We have demonstrated that echo-planar imaging can be used to produce high-quality snapshot images of the human fetus in utero in a fraction of a second. These images are free of motional artifact or blurring and allow detailed depiction of fetal structures in normal and pathological pregnancies.
## Abstract The effects on the phase of spins moving during echoβplanar imaging (EPI) acquisition were studied. Standard singleβshot and interleaved multishot blipped EPI acquisitions were considered, assuming either high gradient strength and slew rates or standard gradient strength and slew rates
The method to reduce the ghost artifact in echo-planar imaging (EPI) using a phase correction derived from the image data (M. H. Buonocore and L. Gao, Magn. Reson. Med. 38, 89 (1997)) is generalized to multishot (interleaved) EPI, where the artifact takes the form of multiple ghosts. The method is s
## Abstract At 1.5 T, the field strength of most clinical MR imagers, gradientβecho Imaging Is the primary imaging method for measuring brain activation, as such sequences are highly sensitive to changes in blood oxygenation or T2\* effects. Unfortunately, gradientβecho sequences are also extremely
