With the goal of shortening the overall scan time in
pediatric MRI, here we present preliminary data acquired
the use of four MR methods that have been built
in-house: a T1-weighted 3D Short-Axis Propeller Echo
Planar Imaging (SAP-EPI) sequence; a T2-weighted 3D
SAP-EPI sequence, a novel Fluid Attenuated Inversion
Recovery (FLAIR) Readout-Segmented (RS)-EPI sequence;
and a dual-echo Diffusion-Weighted-Imaging (DWI)
sequence. The first three of these methods are faster
than their conventional counterparts; and the latter can
also deliver R2 maps.
