What is magnetization relaxation?

The relaxation or approach of a magnetic system to an equilibrium or steady-state condition as the magnetic field is changed. This relaxation is not instantaneous but requires time. The characteristic times involved in magnetic relaxation are known as relaxation times.

What Does relaxation mean in MRI?

Relaxation is the process in which spins release the energy received from a radiofrequency pulse. MRI signal is influenced, among other factors, by different types of relaxation: T1 relaxation (spin-lattice or longitudinal relaxation) T2 relaxation (spin-spin or transverse relaxation)

What is T1 and T2 relaxation in MRI?

Tissue can be characterized by two different relaxation times – T1 and T2. T1 (longitudinal relaxation time) is the time constant which determines the rate at which excited protons return to equilibrium. It is a measure of the time taken for spinning protons to realign with the external magnetic field.
