A repetitive pulse variant of broadline gradient echo magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract
A variant of the broadline, solid state, gradient echo imaging technique which uses repetitive small flip angle pulses to overcome bandwidth limitations and which is analogous to FLASH liquid state magnetic resonance imaging is described. The improvements in image quality which can be obtained are demonstrated by one-dimensional profiles of a rubber phantom obtained with an echo time of only 80 mu s.
