Figure 1.
Interleaved 2D gradient-recalled echo sequence alternating between the two anatomic locations (Gx=frequency-encoding gradient, Gy=phase-encoding gradient, Gz=slice-selection gradient). All but the fourth interleave are flow compensated along the slice-select direction. The fourth interleave is flow encoded with a Velocity ENCoding (VENC)=60 cm/second. The echo time difference (ΔTE) between the first and third interleaves is 2.5 milliseconds (TE=7.025 milliseconds). The dashed boxes represent sequence parameters that changed between the interleaves.
