Field-echo pulse sequences used under suspended respiration for detection of liver metastases.

To obtain a fast MRI sequence for detection of liver metastases under suspended respiration, two healthy volunteers were examined with the field echo sequence FLASH, using a large number of repetition times, echo times, flip angels and matrix sizes. The spleen was used to simulate liver metastases and contrast-to-noise ratios between liver and spleen were calculated and the sequence with the highest ratio was considered optimal. The different FLASH sequences were also compared with spin echo sequences using short repetition and echo times. A FLASH sequence with a repetition time of 140 ms, an echo time of 14 ms, a flip angle of 80 to 100 degrees and a matrix size of 128 x 256 was considered the most suitable for detecting liver metastases. This sequence, together with other FLASH and spin echo sequences, were used for examination of five patients with liver metastases from endocrine gastrointestinal tumours.
