TL;DR: A new parallel imaging technique was implemented which can result in reduced image acquisition times in MRI, and permits the arbitrary choice of the set of k‐space lines used in the reconstruction and lends itself to parallel reconstruction, hence allowing for real‐time rendering.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the possibility of using real-time fMRI to interpret the spatial distribution of brain function as BCI commands using a high-field (3T) MRI scanner, brain activities associated with four distinct covert functional tasks were detected and subsequently translated into predetermined computer commands for moving four directional cursors.

TL;DR: The most commonly employed modern techniques for prostate cancer MR examinations are reviewed, exploring the relevant signal characteristics from the different methods discussed and relating them to intrinsic prostate tissue properties.

TL;DR: Preliminary temperature measurements in saline phantoms do not indicate excessive temperature increases with extended FAISE acquisitions, however, extensive studies of radio‐frequency power deposition effects should be performed if the FAISE technique is to be fully exploited.

TL;DR: A new MRI spatial encoding method based upon the singular value decomposition (SVD) and using spatially selective RF excitation is described, which provides a near minimal set of spatial encoding profiles computed using an image estimate that is determined from a previously obtained image.
