Spin Echo and Echo Planar imaging of resected nervous tissue presents a specific challenge due to susceptibility differences between tissue and air, and due to high signal from encapsulating media. The researchers developed an encapsulation method for brain tissue that minimized susceptibility artifacts in echo planar images and preserved contrast in spin echo images.
