Provide a brief definition of the impact statement (in CPT). 

What is the main reason for using Parallel Imaging techniques in MRI?

Spatial pre-saturation bands (yellow sat bands) in the c-spine are commonly placed___________ to the spine to reduce __________ artifact? 

In this T1 image of the Chest, what is the phase direction? “MR Image”@NAIT In this T1 image of the Chest, what is the phase direction?

List two ways to decrease scan time.

For this image please indicate:                                    (2 marks)1. The artifact(s) seen 2. Phase direction & Frequency direction “MR Image”@NAIT

RF/Zipper artifact runs perpendicular to which axis? 

Magnetic susceptibility effects are more prominent with_____________ sequences and less prominent with _____________ sequences.

Match the following changes in parameter to the effects on the SNR, Scan time and Spatial Resolution. There is only one answer for each, you must get all 5 to get the marks for this question.

Which type of MRI image is produced using long TR and long TE times with a 180 degree refocusing pulse?
