Résumé
To present the validation of a new Flexible Ultra-Short Echo time (FUSE) pulse sequence using a short-T FUSE was developed to include a range of RF excitation pulses, trajectories, dimensionalities, and long-T Using the capabilities of FUSE, we demonstrated that we could combine a shorter readout duration with our improved deblurring algorithm to effectively reduce off-resonance artifacts. Among the different RF and trajectory combinations, the spiral trajectory with the regular half-inc pulse achieves the highest SNRs. The dual-echo subtraction technique delivers better short-T In this work, we have validated the use of our new FUSE sequence using a short T
