Hi Jorg, I think the Siemens tfl (MPRAGE) sequence automatically sets the TE to the lowest possible value consistent with the choosen bandwidth, gradient mode, and performance of your gradient set. In all likelihood, I'm guessing that the value was still less than 4 ms on your system, right? ch

Hi Jörg T1-weighted image contrast decreases with increasing TE so you want to minimize it. Can you really not change it at all? I've never heard of that. Whas is the default TE? cheers Bruce On Mon, 14 May 2012, Jörg Pfannmöller wrote: Dear freesurfers, currently the freesurfer single t
