Abstract:
A method for producing calculated T1 images with high signal-to-noise ratio and good spatial resolution using surface coils is presented. Separate transmit and receive rf coils with electronic decoupling are employed to insure uniform B1 excitation. The sensitivity profile of the receiver coil is normalized out of the image by the T1 calculation. T1 values determined by this method show close agreement with previously reported values.
