What is Ssfse?
SSFSE method is Single Shot FSE method using 0.5 NEX. SSFSE produces images with less motion artifacts and heavy PD and T2 images with high contrast. New RF reduces Echo Space and minimizes image quality degradation caused by Single Shot. SSFSE is useful for long T2 like MRCP.
What is a haste sequence in MRI?
HASTE (Half fourier Single-shot Turbo spin-Echo) is a single-section T2-weighted sequence that acquires images in less than 1 second. Images are breathing independent and possess a variety of other features useful for imaging the abdomen. The design of this technique is described.
What is ZTE MRI?
Purpose: Zero echo time (ZTE) imaging is a robust and silent 3D radial technique suitable for direct MRI of tissues with very rapid transverse relaxation.
What does Ssfp stand for?

What does signal mean in MRI?
To produce ‘signal’, the MRI scanner interacts with protons in the body. Randomly orientated protons become aligned with the powerful magnetic field in the bore of the scanner. A rapidly repeating sequence of radiofrequency pulses – produced by the scanner – then causes ‘excitation’ and ‘resonance’ of protons.
What is Fiesta MRI?
The FIESTA sequence is a high-resolution T2-weighted MRI sequence that provides outstanding image contrast and high signal-to noise-ratio.
Where is dye injected for brain MRI?
For an MRI of the head, a device is positioned around the head. If your exam uses a contrast material, a doctor, nurse, or technologist will insert an intravenous catheter (IV line) into a vein in your hand or arm. They will use this IV to inject the contrast material.
