title: Single-shot localized echo-planar imaging (STEAM-EPI) at 4.7 tesla.
abstract: The resolution and homogeneity limitations of echo-planar imaging (EPI) are overcome by zoom imaging of an easily shimmed localized volume. Use of the stimulated echo enables single-shot localization. In vivo 0.5-mm resolution EPI images of selected regions of a cat brain at 4.7 T are presented.
