$\text{TR}=\text{Time}\text{to}\text{Repetition}$; $\text{T}{\text{E}}_{\text{eff}}=\text{Effective}\text{Echo}\text{Time}$; $\text{ESP}=\text{echo}\text{spacing}$; $\text{ETL}=\text{echo}\text{train}\text{length}$; $\text{FOV}=\text{field}\text{of}\text{view}$. ${}^{\ast }$In majority of scans (>80%), 21 image slices were acquired. In the only scan acquiring 28 image slices, TR was set to 3000 ms.
