I got a question on scanner parameters... the option where you can
choose your phase-encode direction.
With AP, the brain is not distorted along the RL direction, but you
have to set a fairly high FOV of 220 mm (and get lower resolution),
otherwise the nose will stick into the cerebellum.
With RL, you can set a smaller field of view (and thus obtain higher
resolution), but your images will be warped in RL and therefore not be
very symmetrical...
Can RL foldover be used... or is that generally a bad idea (and why)?
Cheers,
johan
