Combining SENSE and reduced field-of-view for high-resolution diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract Background In diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) using single-shot echo planar imaging (ss-EPI), both reduced field-of-view (FOV) excitation and sensitivity encoding (SENSE) alone can increase in-plane resolution to some degree. However, when the two techniques are combined...
