Time after completion of examination for the computer to present a digital image.

(RFOV) A different field of view (the scanned region) in the frequency and phase encoding directions that means the data acquisition with fewer measurement lines. Because there are fewer rows than columns, a rectangular image is obtained. To reduce the FOV in phase encoding direction (foldover direction) saves scan time by decreasing signal but invariable spatial resolution.
Also called HFI or undersampling.

If the scanned object is oval, e.g. head or abdomen, a rectangular FOV is an easy to use scan parameter to reduce the scan time without loss of resolution.

Standard compound used as a standard reference spectral line for defining chemical shifts for a given nucleus. As recommended by the ASTM, for 1H it is tetramethylsilane (TMS) and for 31P it is phosphoric acid, although for practical biological applications water and PCr have been used as secondary references for hydrogen and phosphorus spectroscopy, respectively. The reference compound can be in a capsule outside of the subject (external) or can be in the subject (internal); internal references are generally preferable where possible, as external references may be subject to different conditions.

Refocused GRE sequences use a refocusing gradient in the phase encoding direction during the end module to maximize (refocus) remaining xy- (transverse) magnetization at the time when the next excitation is due, while the other two gradients are, in any case, balanced.
When the next excitation pulse is sent into the system with an opposed phase, it tilts the magnetization in the α direction. As a result the z-magnetization is again partly tilted into the xy-plane, while the remaining xy-magnetization is tilted partly into the z-direction.
Companies use different acronyms to describe certain techniques.
