摘要
Assuming that the SSFP magnetization response maintains a steady state which is penodic in the presence of diffusion, we can solve for the diffusion effect in such sequences. Formulating a Fourier series decomposition solution to the Bloch‐Torrey equation and imposing the steady‐state condition, analytical expressions describing the signal decay due to diffusion are developed. Magnetization responses for any system and sequence parameters can then be obtained. Also, sensitivity to b factor changes is quite different than standard diffusion measurement techniques. Assumptions made in the solution are verified via finite difference solutions and simulations of the Bloch‐Torrey equation. Copyright © 1991 Wiley‐Liss, Inc., A Wiley Company
