A technique to increase slice coverage in dark blood fast spin echo sequences by a multi-band excitation is presented. The proposed technique can acquire multiple slices at the exact null point of blood. The radial version of the single slice sequence can generate black blood images, TE images and T2 maps within a single breath-hold. In this work we present a model based reconstruction to generate TE images and T2 maps for upto 4 slices in a single breath-hold.
