Sequence diagram for the eZOOM pulse sequence. Slice selective sinc
excitation pulse (RF1), spatially selective refocusing pulses (RF2 and RF3),
spiral readout (‘Readout’ section), and phase preparation for
the next excitation (‘Spoil’ section) including x/y phase
rewinders, x/y hysteresis pulses, and z-killer pulse. The large diffusion
encoding gradient lobes of this twice-refocused spin-echo DTI sequence are
interspersed between the RF pulses and readout.
