Plotting:
Cover Tibia and angle to the long bone.
Considerations:
- Set phase R-L and compensate for aliasing.
- Saturation band inferior and superior to our FOV can help reduce artifacts.
Plotting:
Angle to tibia
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.
