(a) Plot of fat signal intensities across the dash-dot line in Fig. 2. Fat signal intensities are normalized to the maximum fat signal intensity in the reference image. The average fat signal intensity is reduced to 54.1%, 15.5% and 8.5% by using the 3×720μs, 4×800μs, and 5×720μs SPSP pulses, respectively. (b) Plot of water signal intensities across the dash-dot line shown in Fig. 3. Fat signal intensities are normalized to the maximum water signal intensity in the reference image. The average water signal intensity is suppressed to 8.1%, 5.6% and 3.0% by using the 3×720μs, 4×800μs, and 5×720μs SPSP pulses, respectively.
