A shifted radial reordering scheme is proposed for the intermediate TE imaging in 3D long echo train acquisition. This new sampling scheme has been incorporated into SPACE and compared with the linear reordering. The images obtained by the shifted radial reordering scheme present less blurring than those by the conventional linear reordering in 3D long echo train acquisition.
