  1. A total of 6 and 4 dogs were scanned using a FoV of 40x40mm and 80x80mm, respectively, and a slice thickness of 1.5 mm. 1T2-SPAIR - SPectral Attenuated Inversion Recovery, fat suppression technique combining features of Fat-Sat pulses and STIR (Short Tau Inversion Recovery) [23] 2T1-SPIR - Spectral Presaturation with Inversion Recovery, hybrid technique combining a fat-selective RF-pulse and spoiler gradient with nulling of the residual longitudinal fat magnetization through an inversion delay mechanism [23]
