Echo-planar microscopy of porous rocks

Magn Reson Imaging. 1996;14(7-8):875-7. doi: 10.1016/s0730-725x(96)00170-1.

Abstract

A modified version of the echo-planar imaging sequence incorporating multiple 180 degrees RF pulses (PEPI) has been implemented at 11.7 T and used to generate high resolution images of porous solids. By preceding the PEPI sequence with an inversion recovery or flow-encoding sequence, rapid T1, and velocity mapping is possible in the microscopic domain.
