Which of the following best describes an IR sequence?
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Vendarsol
, A. A 180° pulse followed by a 90°/180° combination
B. A 90° pulse followed by a 180° pulse
C. A train of gradient echoes
D. A train of spin echoes - Correct Answer-A 180° pulse followed by
a 90°/180° combination
Gradient echo sequences requiring high signal from fluid are known
as all of the following EXCEPT:
A. T2* gradient echo
B. Steady-state gradient echo
C. Coherent gradient echo
D. Incoherent gradient echo - Correct Answer-Incoherent gradient
echo
The medial and lateral rectus muscles are located in the:
A. Ears
B. Posterior pelvic region
C. Proximal calves
D. Eyes
E. Superior shoulder regions
F. Soft tissues of the neck - Correct Answer-Eyes
Reducing the number of lines filled in k-space will produce an
image:
A. With a decrease in spatial resolution
B. With a increase in spatial resolution
C. With an decrease in overall SNR
D. With an increase in overall SNR
E. With a reduced overall scan time
F. B, C and E only
G. A, D and E only - Correct Answer-A, D and E only
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Vendarsol
,Reducing the number of lines filled in k-space reduces the number
of phase encoding steps, resulting in shorter scan time, an increase
in overall SNR, but a decrease in spatial resolution.

D. 1.13mm
E. 1.24mm - Correct Answer-0.88mm
