ABSTRACT:
An NMR imaging system executes a series of fast spin echo pulse sequences to acquire data for a plurality of images having different T.sub.2 -weighted contrast. Only low-order phase encoding data is acquired separately for each image and the scan time is reduced substantially by using common high-order phase encoding data for all the images.
