title: Rapid line scan technique for artifact-free images of moving objects.
abstract: Moving objects (e.g., heart, lung, chest wall, etc.) typically cause artifacts to appear in two-dimensional Fourier transform ("spin warp") images. The rapid line scan (RLS) technique is a simple inexpensive technique that can rapidly produce artifact-free images of moving objects, without requiring enormous magnetic field gradients or periodic motions. The basic concepts and potential industrial applications of the RLS technique are described.
