Abstract
Single-shot echo-planar imaging is notoriously vulnerable to image artifacts, arising from the necessity of alternate echo time reversal during image reconstruction and from static field inhomogeneity. A technique for overcoming these problems, which further permits imaging on systems with relatively poor gradient waveforms, when data are collected always with the same gradient polarity, is presented. Subsectional and 3D volume imaging are presented as well as a novel phase-correction method for Hermitian symmetry in "half-Fourier" echo-planar imaging.
