4 PULSE SEQUENCES

SPIN ECHO PULSE SEQUENCES

QuestionAnswer
Considered to produce the standard in T1 T2 contrast The spin echo pull sequence
Charts the timing of each event that occurs during an MRI exam Pulse sequence timing diagram
Charts the time at which the RF energy is transmitted and received and the time in duration of each gradient pulse A pulse sequence timing diagram
The first line in the spin Eco pulse sequence timing diagram usually consist of the events related to The transmission of RF energy
TE, is? The time from the 90° RF pulse to the center of the spin echo
The 180° RF pulse is applied? Halfway between the initial RF excitation and the echo, or 1/2 TE
Is applied to rephase the magnetization and allow a spin echo to be collected A 180° RF pulse
The second line of the pulse sequence timing diagram illustrates? The timing of the received RF energy, in other words the MR signal.
In spin Echo pulse sequence, the FID is formed? Initially a free induction decay, or FID is formed but not sampled, the signal decays before I can properly specially encode
One TE period After the 90° pulse, what is formed: The spin echo forms( after the 180° RF pulse) one TE period after the 90° pulse
The received RF line (pulse sequence timing diagram) indicates that the spin echo forms____? The spin echo forms one TE. After the 90° pulse
In order to restrict the external energies disturbance to a single slice what must happen? The slice gradient must be turned on whenever the RF energy is being transmitted
The slice select gradient is turned on whenever the ____ is being transmitted RF energy
Contrast information is specially localized within a selected slice through what two processes: Frequency encoding and phasing encoding
The amplitude of the readout gradient determines the range of frequencies encoded in the echo, known as the? Receiver bandwidth
True or false: the exact position of the phase encoding event, need not be as precise, as that of the slice select or read out gradients TRUE
Is generally turned on sometime between the 90° RF pulse and 180° RF pulse The phasing encoding event,
An important point is that each collected echo has a_____ amount of phase applied to it Unique
The TE period must have as many phase encoding repetitions per slice as the matrix has___? phase lines
The phase encoding gradient is depicted as a table of_____? values. Indicating that it is applied at different amplitude each time the sequence repeats. Its position in time is not critical as other gradient events
Phase is used to uniquely locate the____? Position of the signal
Each time a gradient is applied, a linear change in the magnetic field is created, causing a variation in the precessional frequencies of the protons net magnetization, and therefore creates: Dispersion in phase. Phase dispersion is only allowed by the phase encoding gradient since phase is used to uniquely locate the position of the signal
Extra gradient pulses in a slice and read out directions back to balance the positive and negative frequencies and can cancel the____? Accumulated phase before the echo is recorded
