Decoupling Techniques
As mentioned above, frequency shifts can also be generated by a phase gradient
shape. A phase change of 360° per second corresponds to a frequency of 1 Hz,
as can easily be visualized. The frequency shift which needs to be achieved is
±RF-field/
. Since the pulse duration must achieve a 2 rotation off resonance,
corresponding to a 293° flip angle on resonance, it can easily be calculated that a
phase change over 209° during a 293° flip angle pulse is required to achieve this.
