PSIF is a good alternative to T2-TSE for its speed and
good T2 contrast in abdominal imaging at 3T. We propose
to apply fat/water decomposition to PSIF for robust fat
suppression in abdominal imaging. In consideration of
short TR in PSIF for higher SNR, three images with
different TEs are acquired in an interleaved way and the
TE increment was chosen as 0.57 ms. The phantom and
volunteer shows the fat and water images are
successfully derived from the PSIF images with three
different TEs. T2 weighted PSIF water images are
improved in diagnostic quality with robust fat
suppression.
