Fast inversion recovery for myelin suppression (FIRMS). A new magnetic resonance pulse sequence

J Neuroimaging. 1997 Jul;7(3):176-9. doi: 10.1111/jon199773176.

Abstract

Fast inversion recovery for myelin suppression is a new magnetic resonance sequence with the ability to increase gray-white matter contrast. This can improve the definition of normal anatomical structures.
