Plotting:

Angle Parallel to Femoral Neck

Considerations:

  • Set phase R-L and compensate for aliasing.
  • Saturation band inferior and superior to our FOV can help reduce artifacts.

Plotting:

Angle Orthogonal

Considerations:

  • Set phase H-F and compensate for aliasing.
  • Open RectFOV above 100% to increase coverage.
  • Saturation band inferior and superior to our FOV can help reduce artifacts.
