A modified saturation-recovery approximation for multiple spin-echo pulse sequences.
In equations describing multiple spin-echo pulse sequences, the T1 dependence is often approximated by a saturation-recovery expression, which is valid only when the repetition time TR is much greater than the time required for the echoes. A slight modification of this approximation greatly increases its accuracy for small TR values.
