Ultrashort echo time magnetization transfer (UTE‐MT) imaging of cortical bone [PDF]
NMR in Biomedicine, 2015 Magnetization transfer (MT) imaging is one way to indirectly assess pools of protons with fast transverse relaxation. However, conventional MT imaging sequences are not applicable to short T2 tissues such as cortical bone. Ultrashort echo time (UTE) sequences with TE values as low as 8 µs can detect signals from different water components in cortical ...

Measurement of T1 of the ultrashort T2* components in white matter of the brain at 3T. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Recent research demonstrates that white matter of the brain contains not only long T2 components, but a minority of ultrashort T2* components. Adiabatic inversion recovery prepared dual echo ultrashort echo time (IR-dUTE) sequences can be used to ...
