Exploration, Development and Application of Z-Shim and Allied Methods for Signal Recovery in Single-Shot Echo Planar Imaging
Echo planar imaging (EPI) is widely used for applications where speed and/or sensitivity are essential, such as functional MRI (fMRI) and perfusion MRI. Gradient echo EPI suffers from signal drop-out due to through-slice magnetic field (Bo) inhomogeneity, which prevents certain brain areas from bein...
