Reduce MRI Scanning Time

What is GRAPPA?

GeneRalized Autocalibrating Partial Parallel Acquisition

Will combine multi-coils to become bigger coil

Reduce scanning time

Alternative Way Instead of GRAPPA

Open Protocol — Routine

Adjust the averages by reducing the value (1 step)

Example: Current value 2 — become 1

However, this will reduce the SNR value.

To gain the SNR value, increase the Phase Oversampling by 50%

The SNR value should be around 1. Should not reach 2 or below 1.
