including a first excitation pulse followed by the first inversion pulse after which data corresponding to the first set of data is acquired at time te 1 after the first inversion pulse followed by a second excitation pulse followed by the second inversion pulse after which data corresponding to the second set of data is acquired at time te 2 after the second inversion pulse consecutive excitation pulses are spaced by repetition time tr at each data acquisition data corresponding to a 2 dimensional plane or slice is acquired individual data acquisitions are acquired corresponding to different planes or slices so that data acquired for a series of data acquisitions corresponds to a 3 dimensional space accordingly data corresponding to the respective first and second sets of image data acquired for a series of data acquisitions each correspond to substantially the same 3 dimensional space where the first and second sets of image data are density weighted and t 2 weighted respectively the processing assembly 14 includes at least one processor such as a microprocessor a cpu a personal computer a pda a hand held computing device a mainframe computer etc processors of the processing assembly 14 may be in data communication with one another such as by a network such as a lan wan intranet internet etc the processing assembly 14 further includes an input port 16 for receiving the image data the input port 16 provides an interface between the mr imager 12 and the processor assembly 14 a variety of software modules executable by the processing assembly 14 are accessed by the processing assembly 14 and executed thereby for processing of the image data and for determination of.
