FIG 14. Comparison of EPI with different voxel size regarding susceptibility artifacts at 3T. (A) Thinner sections (matrix, 64 x 64; TR 4500 ms; TE, 38 ms; bandwidth, 2170 Hz/pixel; FOV, 190 x 190 mm2; 53 sections; section thickness, 2 and 5 mm) and (B) smaller in-plane voxel sizes (matrix, 128 x 128; all other parameters same as in A) result in fewer susceptibility artifacts, especially in frontobasal regions.
