Velocity imaging of slow coherent flows using stimulated echoes.
We measure the velocity distribution of slow fluid flow in model systems using stimulated echoes and velocity phase encoding. We show velocity images of slow coherent flow with velocities of the order of 0.1 mm/s which is slower than can be obtained by the bolus-tracking method. The eddy current errors were compensated by phase correction.
