Table 1.

MR sequences and its parameters used for SNR and image homogeneity measurement. A fast spinecho (FSE), a spinecho (SE), a 3D magnetization-prepared rapid gradient echo sequence (MPRAGE) and a spoiled gradient-echo (GRE) sequence were applied.

Sequence	TR [ms]	TE/TI [ms]	Voxel Size [mm³]	Matrix Size	α [°]	Bandwith [Hz/Pixel]
2D FSE	2770	42	0.14×0.14×1.0	256×256	90/180	130
2D SE	500	10	0.14×0.14×1.0	256×256	90/180	130
3D MPRAGE	2000	2.07/800	0.14×0.14×1.0	256×256	20	380
2D GRE	18	7	0.55×0.55×1.1	256×256	20	1000
