Table 1.

Tabulated is the average g-factor for 2D reduction factors of axial, coronal, and sagittal slices obtained with the outer transceiver array only. For each plane the encoding axis corresponding to the horizontal row is identified above the table, with the vertical row corresponding to the other orthogonal dimension for that plane. Reduction factors also correspond to maximal aliasing.
