title: Hybrid methods of chemical-shift imaging.
abstract: We propose a family of hybrid chemical-shift sequences which combines two physical principles for water/lipid separation to minimize artifacts introduced by B0 and B1 inhomogeneities. Hybrid sequences provide improved species discrimination over earlier methods without resorting to postprocessing while maintaining a multislice/multiecho capability.
