ABSTRACT:
A bipolar, phase-encoding, pre-phaser pulse is employed in each shot of a multi-shot EPI pulse sequence to smooth the phase-encoding gradient first moment throughout the scan. The first moment of the pre-phaser pulse is calculated for each shot in the scan and is played out at the beginning of each shot after the RF excitation.
