Ultrashort echo time and zero echo time MRI at 7T [PDF]
Magnetic Resonance Materials in Physics, Biology and Medicine, 2015 Zero echo time (ZTE) and ultrashort echo time (UTE) pulse sequences for MRI offer unique advantages of being able to detect signal from rapidly decaying short-T2 tissue components. In this paper, we applied 3D ZTE and UTE pulse sequences at 7T to assess differences between these methods.We matched the ZTE and UTE pulse sequences closely in terms of ...

Ramped hybrid encoding for improved ultrashort echo time imaging [PDF]
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2015 PurposeWe propose a new acquisition to minimize the per‐excitation encoding duration and improve the imaging capability for short T2* species.MethodsIn the proposed ramped hybrid encoding (RHE) technique, gradients are applied before the radiofrequency (RF) pulse as in pointwise encoding time reduction with radial acquisition (PETRA) and zero echo time

Ultrashort echo time spectroscopic imaging (UTESI) of cortical bone [PDF]
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, 2007 AbstractCortical bone in the mature skeleton has a short T2* and produces no detectable signal with conventional MR sequences. A two‐dimensional ultrashort echo time (UTE) sequence employing half radio frequency (RF) pulse excitations and radial ramp sampling reduces the effective TE to 8 μs and is capable of detecting signals from cortical bone.
