The use of binomial pulse sequences for fat suppression in MRI at low field strength (0.15 T) was investigated. Both spin-echo and inversion-recovery sequences were used and images obtained of the limbs, head and neck, and pelvis of volunteers and patients. Good fat suppression was seen particularly in small fields of view. Despite technical problems, chemical shift selective techniques can be applied at low field strength.
Key Words: Magnetic resonance imaging Chemical shift imaging Fat suppression
