Is TrueFISP a gradient‐echo or a spin‐echo sequence?

Abstract

It is commonly accepted that TrueFISP (balanced FFE, FIESTA) belongs to the class of gradient‐echo (GRE) sequences. GRE sequences are sensitive to dephasing effects of the transverse magnetization between the excitation pulse and echo acquisition, and phase coherence is only established directly after and before excitation pulses. However, an analysis of the phase evolution of transverse magnetization in a TrueFISP experiment shows very close similarities to the echo formation of a spin‐echo (SE) experiment. If dephasing between excitation pulses is below ±π, TrueFISP exhibits a nearly complete refocusing of transverse magnetization at TE = TR/2. Only signals acquired before and after TR/2 show an additional T sensitivity. Magn Reson Med 49:395–397, 2003. © 2003 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
