## Abstract A method to achieve simultaneous water and lipid suppression is described. The key feature of the new dual suppression technique is the use of the well‐known hyperbolic secant (HS) waveform as a 90° saturation pulse. Two HS pulses with opposite frequency offsets are employed either sequ

## Abstract ## Purpose: To demonstrate water‐ and fat‐suppressed proton projection MRI (WASPI) in a clinical scanner to visualize the solid bone matrix in animal and human subjects. ## Materials and Methods: Pig bone specimens and polymer pellets were used to optimize the WASPI method in terms o
In vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy studies of gastrocnemius muscle were performed in six normal volunteers. Both spatially resolved spectroscopy (SPARS) and stimulated echo acquisition mode (STEAM) sequences were used for volume localization. A number of water suppression sequences have
Successful in vivo NMR spectroscopy requires a combination of techniques to address the problems of volume selection, water suppression, and resolution. All this needs to be done in the very heterogeneous environment found in living organisms. Previously published techniques are used to obtain 'H sp
