Single turn solenoid is a transmit and receive RF imaging coil that, in general, has a cylindrical shape. The solenoidal configuration of this coil is a further developed planar surface coil. While surface coils have a strong coupling and high signal to noise ratio to nearby signals they have a marked loss of signal beyond one radius from the center of the coil. With a solenoidal coil design the imaging object lies within one radius from the coil center, which improved imaging (of extremities, such as wrist or knee).

(SPAIR) The MRI fat suppression technique SPAIR is characterized by a low sensitivity to RF field inhomogeneities. The used adiabatic radio frequency pulses for spectral saturation ensure a high uniformity and lower specific absorption rate (SAR).
SPAIR is suitable for offset and difficult to suppress regions such as liver, pelvis, shoulder and hips.

Spin Echo Timing Diagram (SE) The most common pulse sequence used in MR imaging is based of the detection of a spin or Hahn echo. It uses 90° radio frequency pulses to excite the magnetization and one or more 180° pulses to refocus the spins to generate signal echoes named spin echoes (SE).
In the pulse sequence timing diagram, the simplest form of a spin echo sequence is illustrated.
The 90° excitation pulse rotates the longitudinal magnetization (Mz) into the xy-plane and the dephasing of the transverse magnetization (Mxy) starts.
The following application of a 180° refocusing pulse (rotates the magnetization in the x-plane) generates signal echoes. The purpose of the 180° pulse is to rephase the spins, causing them to regain coherence and thereby to recover transverse magnetization, producing a spin echo.
The recovery of the z-magnetization occurs with the T1 relaxation time and typically at a much slower rate than the T2-decay, because in general T1 is greater than T2 for living tissues and is in the range of 100-2000 ms.
The SE pulse sequence was devised in the early days of NMR days by Carr and Purcell and exists now in many forms: the multi echo pulse sequence using single or multislice acquisition, the fast spin echo (FSE/TSE) pulse sequence, echo planar imaging (EPI) pulse sequence and the gradient and spin echo (GRASE) pulse sequence;; all are basically spin echo sequences.
In the simplest form of SE imaging, the pulse sequence has to be repeated as many times as the image has lines.
Contrast values:
PD weighted: Short TE (20 ms) and long TR.
T1 weighted: Short TE (10-20 ms) and short TR (300-600 ms)
T2 weighted: Long TE (greater than 60 ms) and long TR (greater than 1600 ms)
With spin echo imaging no T2* occurs, caused by the 180° refocusing pulse. For this reason, spin echo sequences are more robust against e.g., susceptibility artifacts than gradient echo sequences.

See also Pulse Sequence Timing Diagram to find a description of the components.

(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.

Tattoos with metallic or ferromagnetic color ingredients can distort MR images. Skin irritations or burns caused by heating of the metallic particles due to the radio frequency pulse are also possible, but rare.

MRI Safety Guidance
Patients should be informed about the possible risk, and scanning should be stopped immediately if they feel heat. Metallic make-up can even be pulled into the eye by magnetic forces and should be removed previous to the MRI scan.
