  • Method for off-center field-of-view imaging using MR
    Patent number: 4649347
    Abstract: Off-center field-of-view studies are achieved in MR multi-slice imaging methods by rotation of the axes along which the phase-encoding and readout magnetic field gradients are applied and offsetting the frequency of the MR receiver from the system isocenter frequency. The method is particularly useful in two-dimensional multi-slice imaging using surface coils.
