We present a single-shot fast-spin-echo pulse-sequence (SSFSE) with short-tau inversion recovery (STIR) and deep-learning (DL) image reconstruction that provides whole-body images in less than 3 minutes, achieving uniform fat suppression, detailed delineation of the anatomy, and favorable signal-to-noise (SNR). This was achieved through the reduction of echo-train-length by increasing the acceleration to a factor of 4x, hence substantially improving image quality through blurring reduction in the phase encoding direction, and ameliorating the subsequent SNR reductions by utilization of a DL reconstruction algorithm. This whole-body MRI technique can be used in the setting of various pathologies for both pediatrics and adults.
