SCAN TIME Flashcards
Does scan time depend on
A) TR
B)TE
A) TR
Does scan time depend on
A) # phase encodings
B) # of frequency encodings
A) # of phase encodings
Does scan time depend on
A) flip angle
B) Number of NSA’s
B) Number of NSA’s
Does scan time depend on
A) frequency encoding FOV
B) # of slices in 3D imaging
B) # of slices in 3D imaging
Does scan time depend on
A) ETL in FSE
B) readout gradient
A) ETL in FSE
Does scan time depend on
A) readout gradient
B) # of shots in EPI
B) # of shots in EPI
Scan time = TR x #PE x NSA
2D SE
Scan time = TR x #PE x NSA x # slices
3D imaging
Scan time = TR x #PE x NSA / ETL
FSE
Scan time = TR x NSA x # shots
Increase TR
increase SNR
increase # of slices
increase TR
increase scan time
decrease T1 weighting
scan time for a 2D SE pulse sequence can be calculated by
A) TR x # PEs x NSA
B) TR x #PEs x NSA x #slices
C) TR x #PEs x NSA/ETL
D) TR x #shots x NSA
a
when performing a 2D IR pulse sequence the time can be calculated by

C) TR x #PEs x NSA/ETL
D) TR x #shots x NSA
a
scan time for 2D GE pulse sequences can be calculated by
