A single-shot method
through
overlapping-echo detachment planar imaging (DT2M-OLED)
was proposed
for simultaneously delivering diffusion
and T2 mapping within around one
hundred milliseconds.

brain experimental results. The rats were under deep anesthetic. Four regions of interest (ROI) were chosen on each rat brain for
analysis, which are marked on SE-EPI images.

brain experimental results. The rat was recovering from deep anesthetic
during acquisition. (a) Reference
