Three-Dimensional Magnetization-Prepared Rapid Gradient Echo Imaging

**Semantic type:** Diagnostic Procedure

**Definition:** A 3-dimensional imaging technique that combines the power of magnetization-prepared imaging and rapid 3-D gradient echo acquisition techniques to provide excellent tissue contrasts, high spatial resolution, and full tissue coverage in a short scan time. This technique is applicable for 3D imaging throughout the body.
