ABSTRACT:
In a magnetic resonance imaging method multiple refocusing RF-pulses (22-26) are applied and spin-echo signals (62-66) obtained following an excitation RF-pulse (21). Sequences are executed twice, in time-reversed order. Both measurements are used in the reconstruction of an image. This results in images in which artefacts and blurring due to T.sub.2 -decay is reduced.
