โฆ Synopsis
Multislice imaging techniques effectively applicable to inversion
-recovery (IR) imaging are developed and applied to human imaging. These new multislice IR imaging sequences employ the time-multiplexing (TM) technique conventionally used in the slice-by-slice saturation-recovery (SR) imaging. Two new time-multiplexed multislice (TMM) IR imaging sequences are proposed and some of the experimental results obtained with the methods are presented. o 1985 Academic p , Inc.

## Abstract ## Purpose To test the theoretical benefits of a spectral attenuated inversionโrecovery (SPAIR) fatโsuppression (FS) technique in clinical abdominal MRI by comparison to conventional inversionโrecovery (IR) FS combined with T2โweighted (T2W) partial Fourier single shot fast spin echo (
The purpose of this study was to compare short inversion time inversion recovery (STIR) fast spin-echo (FSE), and fat-saturated T2-weighted FSE sequences in terms of uniformity of fat suppression and lesion conspicuity for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the neck and thorax. STIR FSE and fat-satu
Imaging of short-T(2) species requires not only a short echo time but also efficient suppression of long-T(2) species in order to maximize the short-T(2) contrast and dynamic range. This paper introduces a method of long-T(2) suppression using two long adiabatic inversion pulses. The first adiabatic
Macromolecules contribute broad "background" resonances to the 1 H NMR brain spectra at short echo times. The application of long echo times is the most widely used method for removing these resonances. Here, it is demonstrated that these background resonances may be suppressed at short echo times u
