Gradient Echo Imaging

Typical flip angles are in the order of 15° for the slice-selective excitation pulses. The intensity of the FID after such a pulse corresponds to 25% (sin 15°) of the intensity after a 90° pulse. However, more than 96% (cos 15°) of the longitudinal magnetization are preserved, enabling fast repetition rates. The method can be employed in combination with the backprojection imaging scheme and with spin-warp imaging by phase encoding of spatial information. [Pg.223]

After about 10-20 cycles of the experiment, the magnetization reaches a steady state, where it is in equilibrium with relaxation and selective excitation pulses. Conditions [Pg.223]

The spin-echo images showed no obvious differences between ripe and overripe samples, but the gradient-echo images of the over-ripe melons showed decreased intensity. It was surmised that the increased air spaces in the overripe tissue intensified the internal magnetic susceptibility gradients, whose dephasing effects can be refocused by a spin-echo but not by a gradient-echo. [Pg.97]

Note subcortical lesions including lacunar lesions with severe tissue destruction and CSF like, low signal intensity (e.g. lateral to the anterior horn of the left lateral ventricle) on FLAIR images. On T2 -weighted images residuals from hemorrhagic lesions and small bleeds are appreciated mainly in the basal ganglia... Fig. 13.6.

Because H linewidths in many elastomers are of the order of 3 kHz or less, spin-echo and gradient-echo imaging techniques can be applied. Contrast is introduced by suitable filters like Ti and double-quantum filters or by use of the spectroscopic dimension. Parameter images of T2, the double-quantum signal intensity, or the quadrupolar coupling strength are evaluated and rescaled according to theory or experimental calibration data (cf. Section 7.1.6). [Pg.445]

With conventional spin echo techniques, those features that will alter image contrast are the pulse repetition time (TR) and the echo delay time (TE). With inversion recovery sequences, it is the inversion time (TI) which has the greatest effect while with gradient echo imaging, it is the flip angle that is most important (Barnewolt and Chung 1998 Bradley 1999 Anupindi and Jaramillo 2002 Bitar et al. 2006). [Pg.62]

Metallic objects will produce their own local magnetic field and this will cause marked distortion of the MR image. This is more pronounced on gradient echo imaging. [Pg.69]
