Abstract

Wavelet encoding is presented and compared to phase encoding. In wavelet encoding a distribution of spins is excited by a slice selective RF pulse; for each repetition time the distribution excited has the profile of a wavelet at different scale and translation. The spin density can be reconstructed with an inverse wavelet transform. Wavelet encoding has three advantages over phase encoding: (1) there is no Gibblquot's ringing from partial volume effects, (2) the effective repetition time can be 36 times the repetition time for a 256 × 256 image, and (3) motion artifacts are local and dramatically reduced. Using wavelet encoding, a 256 × 256 T~2~‐weighted projection image can be acquired in 33s. © 1992 Academic Press, Inc.

A new digital wavelet-encoding method for MRI is described. The method differs from previously described wavelet-encoding approaches, because the point-spread function is made independent of the wavelet basis used. This has a significant practical advantage, because wavelet bases can now be consider
