A novel object-independent "balanced" reference scan for echo-planar imaging.
Interleaved echo-planar imaging (EPI) is susceptible to significant ghosting artifacts, resulting primarily from system time delays that cause data matrix misregistration. Most EPI applications rely on "reference scans" to measure delays, and post-processing algorithms are used to correct these errors. Unfortunately, delay estimates made with most reference scan techniques are object dependent,...

متن کاملField mapping without reference scan using asymmetric echo-planar techniques.
Improvements in Bo mapping and shimming were achieved by measuring the static field information in multiple subsequent echoes generated by an asymmetric echo-planar readout gradient train. With careful compensation, eddy current effects were shown to affect the adjustment of the shim coils minimally. In addition to reducing the time required for field mapping by two-fold, the sensitivity was si...

متن کاملEcho-planar imaging.
Echo-planar imaging is a fast magnetic resonance (MR) imaging technique that allows acquisition of single images in as little as 20 msec and performance of multiple-image studies in as little as 20 seconds. Echo-planar imaging achieves its speed by obtaining all spatial-encoding information after a single radio-frequency (RF) excitation. Conventional imaging requires multiple-RF excitations, se...
