Table 2:
Sequences run on patient 2
| Acquisition Time (min:sec) | TR (ms) | TE (ms) | Echo Train | Resolution | IPAT AccelerationFactor | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T1 SAG and Cor FSE | 2:18 | 475 | 16 | 3 | 256 × 256 | 2 | Nondiagnostic due to motion |
| T2 Ax FSE | 2:22 | 5890 | 104 | 21 | 256 × 205 | 2 | Nondiagnostic due to motion |
| T1 GRE, 3 planes | 0:32 | 102 | 4.8 | NA | 256 × 156 | 2 | Nondiagnostic due to motion |
| T1 FSE with navigator, 3 planes | 4:00–6:00 | 429 | 10 | 3 | 256 × 205 | 2 | Diagnostic |
| T2 Ax FSE | 4:30 | 5890 | 104 | 21 | 256 × 205 | 2 | Diagnostic |
Note:—IPAT indicates integrated parallel acquisition technique; SAG, sagittal; Cor, coronal; FSE, fast spin-echo; Ax, axial; GRE, gradient-echo; NA, not applicable. Both the TR and the acquisition time will be a variable of the frequency of patient motion. They should be adjusted inversely with concatenations to keep the effective TR short for T1 sequences.
