Question
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance 8: In addition to imaging slices as axial cross-sections, NMR has the capability to place the slice in any plane desired. You want to measure a sagittal cross-section which divides a patient into left and right parts. Along which axis do you need to place a gradient for the initial slice definition in your imaging sequence? In which plane do you place the gradients for your individual projections? Assume that the z-axis is parallel to the long axis of the patient, the x-axis spans from the patient's left side to his right side, and the y-axis spans the patient's back to front.
Explanation / Answer
slices taken normal to x are "sagittal and on normal plane on x axis,gradient for for individual projections.
