This article describes the principles of single-shot MRI with respect to conventional multi-shot techniques, and emphasizes the differences between single-shot images acquired with gradient echoes and spin echoes. Six examples illustrate how these differences can be used to choose a single-shot imaging method for a specific clinical application.Wednesday, 16 Jan 2002 23:25:03 GMT
