The fluid attenuating inversion recovery (FLAIR) MRI
method is an important technique for the differentiation
of brain and spine lesions. However the FLAIR-FSE
sequence typically used in the clinics can be long and
prone to motion. Here, we show preliminary patient data
using a faster readout-segmented (rs)-EPI-FLAIR
implementation. With a better selection of imaging
parameters, rs-EPI-FLAIR may be a useful rapid
alternative to conventional FLAIR and EPI-FLAIR in the
clinics.
