Transient-State Gradient-Echo Imaging

  • Chapter
Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Abstract

The steady-state existing in SE, FE, and FFE imaging methods is the consequence of the strict periodicity of the sequence. Quite commonly, in these steady-state methods the first repetitions of the sequence are used not for the acquisition of data, but only to run in the steady state.
