Q1 What is the difference between T2 relaxation and T2* relaxation?
A T2 applies to gradient echo sequences; T2* applies only to spin echo
B T2* includes spin-spin interactions plus field inhomogeneity effects, making T2* always shorter
C T2* measures longitudinal recovery while T2 measures transverse dephasing
D T2 and T2* are interchangeable terms for the same relaxation process
Q2 What does T1 relaxation represent?
A Longitudinal recovery of protons realigning with B0 after RF excitation
B The loss of phase coherence in the transverse plane over time
C The speed at which raw data fills k-space during acquisition
D Signal decay caused by rapidly switching gradient fields
Q3 What happens to protons when an RF pulse is applied at the Larmor frequency?
A They absorb energy and tip out of alignment
B They stop spinning
C They immediately relax back to B0
D They increase their precession speed
Q4 What does T2 relaxation represent?
A The systematic filling of k-space during data acquisition
B The absorption of RF energy by the proton spin system
C The longitudinal recovery of protons toward the B0 axis
D Loss of phase coherence between spinning protons in the transverse plane
