title: SPIRAL-SPRITE: a rapid single point MRI technique for application to porous media.
abstract: This study presents the application of a new, rapid, single point MRI technique which samples k space with spiral trajectories. The general principles of the technique are outlined along with application to porous concrete samples, solid pharmaceutical tablets and gas phase imaging. Each sample was chosen to highlight specific features of the method.
