  • Patent number: 6614225
    Abstract: Multiple signals are excited at different slice positions and then refocused simultaneously. The resulting MRI signals from two or more slices are acquired during a unipolar gradient read period. Then, the signals can be simultaneously refocused in additional unipolar read periods for echo train imaging. In general, signals from multiple slices created by selective RF excitation are read-out on a read gradient.
