摘要
A method of magnetic resonance imaging a flowing liquid flowing through a rectangular cross-section column of space, wherein imaging readings are obtained from points throughout the column by utilizing a frequency encoding gradient to define the position of a reading point in the direction of the long axis of the column; defining the position of a reading point in a plane normal to the long axis of the column using one of phase encoding gradients and echo-planar blips; using one of phase encoding gradients and echo-planar blips with odd echoes and even echoes to acquire readings in two distinct regions of k-space; and obtaining readings in each plane normal to the long axis of the column from a 32x32 matrix of reading points using 16 phase encoding steps and 8 echo planar interleaves. Alternatively, the step of obtaining may be accomplished by varying the velocity phase sensitivity of the frequency encoding gradient to achieve a continuously varying phase sensitivity across k-space.
