Fat and water suppression in bSSFP abdominal imaging using a 5×720μs SPSP pulse. A reference image by using a normal RF pulse excitation (a) is acquired with TE/TR=2.3/4.4ms. Complete and homogenous fat and water suppression are achieved by SPSP excitations (TE/TR=3.0/6.0ms) as shown in the water-only (b) and fat-only images (c), respectively. Imaging parameters: FOV=34cm, flip angle=35°, slice thickness=5mm and matrix size=256×256.
