ORI-O-CSPAMM effectively removed off-resonance effects and only two images where necessary to reconstruct CSPAMM and MICSR images
Figure 2:
Water and fat phantom images
obtained using complex-difference (CD) and MICSR for a trigger-delay-time of 45 ms (the delays are different between the images due to differences in the duration of the tagging prepulse). The images were acquired using (a) CSPAMM, (b) ORI-CSPAMM,
(c) O-CSPAMM, and (d) ORI-O-CSPAMM sequences. Images acquired without ORI
prepulse showed a shift in the tagging pattern at the water-fat
interface, while in ORI versions ((b) and (d)) the shift was corrected.
