(IR FGR) A gradient echo sequence with an inversion pulse.

See Gradient Recalled Echo Sequence, Inversion Recovery and Steady State Free Precession.

(MPGR) Multiplanar gradient recalled acquisition in the steady state is a term for a fast gradient echo sequence with slice selective RF pulses.

See Gradient Recalled Echo Sequence and Gradient Echo Sequence.

(FLARE) Fast Low Angle Recalled Echoes is a gradient echo sequence, typically with low flip angles and refocused gradient echo.

See also Refocused Gradient Echo Sequence and Flip Angle.

(SPGR) The SPGR pulse sequence is similar to the spoiled GRASS sequence. The spoiled gradient recalled (SPGR) acquisition in steady state uses semi-random changes in the phase of the radio frequency (RF) pulses to produce a spatially independent phase shift.

See also Spoiled Gradient Echo Sequence and Gradient Recalled Acquisition in Steady State (GRASS).

(TurboGRASS) This GRASS-based sequence use an inversion pulse followed by a low flip angle and short TR gradient echo train.
