Abstract
Systems and methods for suppressing image artifacts in multi-shot magnetic resonance (MR) images are disclosed. The techniques described herein include initiating a pulse train for a segment of a multi-shot fast spin-echo imaging procedure by applying an excitation radio frequency (RF) pulse, and transmitting a plurality of RF refocusing pulses for the segment. Each refocusing pulse of the plurality of RF refocusing pulses may have a respective phase that increases by a predetermined phase offset with each successive refocusing pulse of the segment. The techniques include generating k-space data based on a respective plurality of echoes detected by the MR system in response to the plurality of RF refocusing pulses.
