Previous studies have shown that T1w SE POPELLER is
helpful in the reduction of flow artefacts in the brain,
especially in the T1w images post-Gd. An additional
advantage of SE-PROPELLER sequence is the possibility to
reduce bulk motion artefacts. In this study, the effects
of the PROPELLER readout are evaluated in the neck
region in patients with head and neck tumors, which is
usually degraded by motion and flow artefacts. In this
work we have shown that with T1w SE-PROPELLER, motion
artefacts can be reduced significantly. Flow artefacts
in T1w scans are also minimized in the SE PROPELLER.
