Sequence parameters for vessel wall imaging protocol
| TR (msec) | TE (msec) | TI (msec) | Echo-Train Length | Section Thickness | Parallel Factor | FOV | Resolution | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T1 FLAIR pre- and postgadolinium (axial and coronal or sagittal) | 2108 | 12 | 860 | 6 | 2 mm (initially 3 mm, changed to 2 mm) | 2 | 16 × 22 cm | 384 × 384 |
| T2 FRFSE (axial and coronal) | 3450 | 92 | - | 17 | 2 mm (initially 3 mm, changed to 2 mm) | 2 | 16 × 22 cm | 512 × 512 |
Note:—FRFSE indicates fast-recovery fast spin-echo.
