Phase offset multi-planar (POMP) encoding is applied in a simultaneous multi-slice (NSMS = 4) excitation scheme using half sinc pulses. In combination with a gradient echo 2D spiral readout trajectory and controlled aliasing in parallel imaging (CAIPI) via a model-based reconstruction a fast ultra-short echo time (UTE) sequence is developed. Sequence details and performance tests on short T2* phantoms are presented.
