AbstractA refocused-SSFP sequence based on balanced-FFE (TrueFisp, Fiesta) that attenuates fat signal is presented. The sequence uses periodically variable flip angles and produces a dual steady state of the signal, which is obtained after a dual transient phase if an appropriate preparation is used. The off-resonance profile of the steady-state signal exhibits large stopbands that can be employed for fat suppression. Numerical simulations were performed to investigate the signal behavior and the off-resonance properties of the sequence. Experimental results obtained with a Philips Gyroscan Intera 1.5T MR scanner demonstrated fat attenuation in phantoms and abdominal images in volunteers.Copyright 2006 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
