T1 relaxation time is also known as: A) transverse relaxation B) longitudinal relaxation C) decay D) spin spin relaxation

B) longitudinal relaxation

Why is T1 _____ a tissue characteristic? A) recovery (regrowth), Because water relaxes faster than fat B) recovery (regrowth), Because different tissue have different T1 relaxation rates. C) decay, Because fat relaxes faster than water D) decay, Because different tissue have different T1 rates of decay.

D) bright

Why is T2 _____ a tissue characteristic? A) recovery (regrowth), Because water relaxes faster than fat B) Recovery (regrowth), Because different tissue have different T2 relaxation rates. C) decay, Because water relaxes faster than fat D) decay, Because different tissue have different T2 rates of decay.

D) decay, Because different tissue have different T2 rates of decay. T2 is a measurement of decay of Mxy (the NMV) from the transverse plane. At TE the transverse component of magnetization will be different for each tissue type as well as pathology, making the signal intensity (and subsequently the tissue brightness) different for each tissue.
