Family Planning Perspectives Through the mid-1980s, Medicaid eligibility requirements included very low income thresholds established by the individual states. Between 1987 and 1991, eligibility standards for poor and near-poor pregnant women were expanded dramatically. The 1986 Omnibus Budget and Reconciliation Act (OBRA) permitted states to extend eligibility (and receive reimbursement for se...

NATURE | VOL 411 | 14 JUNE 2001 | www.nature.com 843 Collectively, plants produce a remarkably diverse array of over 100,000 low-molecular-mass natural products, also known as secondary metabolites. Secondary metabolites are distinct from the components of intermediary (primary) metabolism in that they are generally nonessential for the basic metabolic processes of the plant. Most are derived f...

Dixon Reconstruction

This approach is particularly important at lower field strengths, where it is the preferred method of lipid suppression. At 0.5T and below, chemically selective excitation or saturation is impractical since the small fat/water spectral shift would require a very long RF pulse. For example, the minimum time for a spectral-spatial pulse at 0.5T is about 24 ms. Inversion recovery methods become le...

CS-Dixon: Compressed Sensing for Water-Fat Dixon Reconstruction

Introduction: Water-fat separation is of interest in several MRI applications including fat suppression and fat quantification. Chemical shift imaging allows robust water-fat separation [1, 2], however the acquisition of multiple images results in prolonged scan time. Accelerated water-fat separation using compressed sensing (CS) was partly addressed in [3] by considering the separation as a sp...
