“…Increasing the number of sections requires either repeating the sequence or lengthening the TR. In both cases this is equivalent to changing imaging (4) This function peaks at a TR of 1.26 T1 and has a broad peak of 90% of the maximum for TR between 0_6 and 2.6 T1 [17]. From the point of view of obtaining the contrast desired for these sequences (the long-TR contrast), it is necessary to operate with TR values on the order of at least 2 T1 [12]_ At high field strength, for a typical T1 of about 1 second, TR of approximately 2 seconds begins to satisfy this contrast condition.…”
