Articular cartilage deformation determined in an intact tibiofemoral joint by displacement-encoded imaging.

abstract：:A new approach to spin-echo imaging is presented in which the 180 degrees RF pulse refocuses two or more spin-echoes at different positions in the readout period. When simultaneous echo refocusing (SER) is implemented using multiple 180 degrees pulses, an undesirable mixing of stimulated echoes and primary echoes from...
