A novel method to obtain separate fat and water images is presented. It is based on the replacement of the first echo generating π pulse by two π/2 pulses separated by a time delay corresponding to one‐half cycle of the resonance frequency difference between fat and water protons. © 1986 Academic Press, Inc.
