✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Three‐dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging allows thin‐section acquisition and therefore more accurate multiplanar reconstruction than conventional two‐dimensional spin‐echo imaging. Unfortunately, addition of a third acquisition plane extends imaging time greatly. With gradient‐echo techniques, 3D acquisitions have become clinically useful. These techniques are limited, however, by susceptibility and other field inhomogeneity artifacts and decreased signal‐to‐noise ratios compared with spin‐echo techniques. The authors describe implementation of a true spin‐echo 3D technique that, by using fast spin‐echo parameters, reduces acquisition time to a clinically useful level. Potential applications of the technique are demonstrated.

Three-dimensional (3Dl fast spin-echo (FSE) imaging can produce contiguous thin sections for high-quality multiplanar reconstructions. Such reformatted images may be useful in the evaluation of three-dimensionally complex. curvilinear anatomic structures such as the hippocampus. The authors describe

In this paper we present a pulse sequence that combines a displacement-encoded stimulated echo with rapid sampling of k-space by means of turbo spin echo imaging. The stimulated echo enables the use of long observation times between the two pulsed field gradients that sample q-space completely. Prop
