FRONSAC is compatible with other imaging methods. FRONSAC is applied to a turbo spin echo sequence with an echo train length (ETL) of 8 and effective echo times shown above each column. To calculate the actual scan time reductions the ETL is multiplied with the undersampling factor, yielding scan accelerations of 32 and 48 for these images. Experimental FRONSAC images maintain identical contrast to the Cartesian images at each effective echo time. Black space in the images has been cropped for better visualization.
