## Abstract A 34% change in signal intensity correlated with visual stimulation was observed in the occipital lobes of three normal volunteers examined with MRI at 0.15 T using fluid attenuated inversion recovery pulse sequences. Similar results were observed at 1.0 T. A double difference technique

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Fourteen patients with disease of the spinal cord were imaged with fluid‐attenuated inversion‐recovery (FLAIR) sequences in which the inversion time was chosen to substantially reduce or null the signal from CSF. Lesions were seen with greater conspicuity than with conventional contrast‐enhanced and ‐unenhanced T~1‐~ and T~2‐~‐weighted sequences in 11 cases.© 1992 Academic Press,Inc.

## Abstract The fast spin‐echo (FSE) sequence is frequently used as a fast data‐readout technique in conjunction with other pulse sequence elements, such as in fluid‐attenuated inversion‐recovery (FLAIR) and double inversion‐recovery (DIR) sequences. In order to implement those pulse sequences, an
The purpose of this paper was to develop and evaluate a fast inversion recovery (FIR) technique for T1-weighted MR imaging of contrast-enhancing brain pathology. The FIR technique was developed, capable of imaging 24 sections in approximately 7 minutes using two echoes per repetition and an alternat
## Abstract Sodium imaging with soft inversion recovery fluid attenuation, which may be advantageous for intracellular weighting, was demonstrated with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suppression in five healthy volunteers at 4.7 T. Long rectangular inversion pulses reduce the average power deposition in
