In vivo leg images. The femoral artery of the leg is depicted by solid arrows. a–b: Without partial saturation. (a) is acquired with k_y as the inner acquisition loop, while (b) is acquired with k_z as the inner loop. Pulsatile ghost artifacts (dashed arrows) are generated along the outer phase-encode direction. c: With partial saturation, inflow enhancement within the femoral artery and ghost artifacts are greatly reduced.
