Echo-planar time course MRI of cat brain oxygenation changes.

abstract：:Frequency-modulated (FM) pulses have practical advantages for spin-echo experiments, such as the ability to produce a broadband pi rotation, with an inhomogeneous radiofrequency (RF) field. However, such use leads to a nonlinear phase of the transverse magnetization, which is why FM pulses like the hyperbolic secant (...
