Imaging sequences in magnetic resonance tomography and their clinical application. Pt. 2

The wide range of different sequences available, with their widely different acronyms, are summarized and their clinical potential discussed. Part 1 of this report, about the Spin Echo family, appeared in the previous volume, 1/96. Part 2 deals with Gradient Echo sequences, with the exception of Echo Planar imaging, which together with hybrid techniques, i.e. mixed Gradient Echo - Spin Echo sequences, will be subject of Part 3.
