Slab
selection by the dual echo-spacing technique in SPACE with non-selective
refocusing pulses needs averaging with phase cycling ans is sensitive to
chemical shift artifacts during excitation. A new technique, VERSE-SPACE is
presented in this abstract to provide faster acquisition speed and better
slab profile than the previous technique.
