Abstract
A 90 degrees-tau 1-90 degrees-tau 2-image acquisition pulse sequence allows spatial mapping of resonant frequency. This sort of sequence has previously been used for magnet shimming, and its use in chemical-shift imaging has been proposed. The authors used this sequence in magnetic resonance imaging of a phantom to demonstrate the magnetic field gradients arising from susceptibility differences within the phantom and allow those gradients to be measured. Gradients may arise near interfaces between substances that cannot support the same magnetic flux density. The pulse sequence was found to work well in lower-field-strength instruments.
