Fat suppression can be
achieved in a variety of ways, including using water-only excitation or using a
Dixon method. Each of these methods exhibits strengths and limitations. In this
work, we evaluated the characteristics of water excitation compared to a 2-point
Dixon fat suppression method used in high spatiotemporal resolution DCE breast
MRI.
