The influence of flow on MR tomography images and signal intensities has been studied using experimental model tubes and an aqueous NiCl2 solution having the same relaxation time as human blood. We applied the inversion recovery (IR) and the spin-echo (SE) sequence on a .15T MR tomography system. The influence of RF pulse distance (tau) in the IR and SE experiment as well as the influence of magnetic z-gradient strength on the flow images has been investigated. IR images revealed that signals from flowing systems recover more rapidly due to influx of non-inverted longitudinal magnetization into the scan slice. SE images in presence of flow are characterized by signal intensity loss with increasing time caused by the outflow and dephasing of transverse magnetization. With increasing strength of the z-gradient, the MR signals of flowing fluids decrease drastically. Thus for detection of flow, all the above mentioned parameters are of importance.
