STIR SEQUENCES

🧲🚨MRI BACK TO THE BASICS

STIR SEQUENCES EXPLAINED.

STIR stands for SHORT TAU INVERSION RECOVERY.

Inversion recovery sequences will start with a 180 degree “inversion” pulse. Followed by the typical 90 degree pulse.

The time between the 180 degree inversion pulse and the 90 degree pulse is called the TI…. Aka “Inversion Time”…. Aka TAU!
