Correction of Artifacts Induced by B₀ Inhomogeneities in Breast MRI Using Reduced‐Field‐of‐View Echo‐Planar Imaging and Enhanced Reversed Polarity Gradient Method

Background Diffusion‐weighted (DW) echo‐planar imaging (EPI) is prone to geometric distortions due to B 0 inhomogeneities. Both prospective and retrospective approaches have been developed to decrease and correct such distortions. Purpose The purpose of this work was to evaluate the performance of reduced‐field‐of‐view (FOV) acquisition and retrospective distortion correction methods in decreasing distortion artifacts for breast imaging....
