ABSTRACT:
Phase and magnitude correction is performed in two dimensions to reduce ghosting in single shot and multi-shot EPI scans. First, a phase/magnitude correction in the readout direction is carried out to reduce echo shifts and gradient waveform distortions. Then, a two dimensional phase/magnitude correction is performed to remove the remaining xy phase/magnitude errors.
