Abstract

The signal from fat is suppressed by a CHESS pulse sequence that precedes each imaging pulse sequence in an MRI scan. The effectiveness of the suppression is optimized by calculating a flip angle for the ChemSat RF saturation pulse in the CHESS pulse sequence based in part on prescribed scan parameters, such as the number of interleaved slices to be acquired.
