Correction of inhomogeneity of the magnetic field produced by the main magnet of a MRI system due to imperfections in the magnet or to the presence of external ferromagnetic objects. May involve changing the configuration of the magnet or the using of shim coils (active shimming) or adding or removing steel from the magnets poles (passive shimming) to fine-tune the magnetic field.

Slice Select Gradient
 
(Gs)The slice select gradient is a magnetic field gradient applied to select the slice position in the direction of this gradient (x-direction). For orthogonal slices, the magnetic field gradient is applied perpendicular to the desired slice plane. Oblique and double-oblique slices are exited by simultaneously applying 2 or 3 gradient fields.

The T1 relaxation time (also called spin lattice or longitudinal relaxation time), is a biological parameter that is used in MRIs to distinguish between tissue types. This tissue-specific time constant for protons, is a measure of the time taken to realign with the external magnetic field. The T1 constant will indicate how quickly the spinning nuclei will emit their absorbed RF into the surrounding tissue.
As the high-energy nuclei relax and realign, they emit energy which is recorded to provide information about their environment. The realignment with the magnetic field is termed longitudinal relaxation and the time in milliseconds required for a certain percentage of the tissue nuclei to realign is termed 'Time 1' or T1. Starting from zero magnetization in the z direction, the z magnetization will grow after excitation from zero to a value of about 63% of its final value in a time of T1. This is the basic of T1 weighted images.
The T1 time is a contrast determining tissue parameter. Due to the slow molecular motion of fat nuclei, longitudinal relaxation occurs rather rapidly and longitudinal magnetization is regained quickly. The net magnetic vector realigns with B0 leading to a short T1 time for fat.
Water is not as efficient as fat in T1 recovery due to the high mobility of the water molecules. Water nuclei do not give up their energy to the lattice (surrounding tissue) as quickly as fat, and therefore take longer to regain longitudinal magnetization, resulting in a long T1 time.

T2 Star
 
(T2* or T two star) The observed time constant of the FID due to loss of phase coherence among spins oriented at an angle to the static magnetic field. Commonly due to a combination of magnetic field inhomogeneities, dB, and spin spin transverse relaxation, with the result of rapid loss in transverse magnetization and MRI signal. MRI signals can usually still be recovered as a spin echo in times less than or on the order of T2.
1/T2 * @ 1/T2 + Dw/2; Dw = gDB. The FID will generally not be exponential, so that T2* will not be unique.

Volume Selective Excitation
 
The selective excitation of spins in only a limited region of space. This can be particularly useful for spectroscopy as well as imaging. Spatial localization of the signal source may be achieved through spatially selective excitation and the resulting signal may be analyzed directly for the spectrum corresponding to the excited region. It is usually achieved with selective excitation.
Typically, a single dimension of localization can be achieved with one selective RF excitation pulse (and a magnetic field gradient along a desired direction), while a localized volume (3D) can be excited with a stimulated echo produced with three selective RF pulses whose selective magnetic field gradients are mutually orthogonal, having a common intersection in the desired region. Similar 'crossed plane' excitation can be used with selective 180° refocusing pulses and conventional spin echoes.
A degree of spatial localization of excitation can alternatively be achieved with depth pulses, e.g. when using surface coils for excitation as well as signal detection. An indirect application of selective excitation for volume-selected spectroscopy is to use appropriate combinations of signals acquired after selective inversion of different regions, in order to subtract away the signal from undesired regions.
