Training activity information

Details

Investigate the use of methods to accelerate static and dynamic pulse sequences

Type

Developmental training activity (DTA)

Evidence requirements

Evidence the activity has been undertaken by the trainee​.

Reflection on the activity at one or more time points after the event including learning from the activity and/or areas of the trainees practice for development.

An action plan to implement learning and/or to address skills or knowledge gaps identified.

Considerations

  • Sequence parameters (TR, echo train length, matrix size)
  • Cartesian and non-cartesian k-space trajectories
  • Partial fourier
  • Parallel imaging including image- and k-space-based methods
  • Sliding window and keyhole approaches
  • k-t methods
  • Simultaneous multi-slice methods
  • Compressed sensing

Relevant learning outcomes
