MRI
with non-linear spatial encoding magnetic (SEM) fields was originally
introduced to realize faster gradient switching time without peripheral nerve
stimulation (PNS) 1. Since then various MRI encoding method such as O-Space,
4D-RIO, and FRONSAC have been introduced for more efficient accelerated spatial
encoding 2, 3, 4. However, these
methods are mostly focused on 2-dimensional MRI and there is uncertainty in its
applicability to 3-dimensional MRI. We apply O-Space to 3D MRI and find
practical challenges and improvement over 3D radial sequence.
