Dynamic Motion/Stress Sequence (6/2014)
•Inguinal Hernia, Diaphragmatic Motion, Pelvic Floor, etc

PulseSeq	TR	TE	Flip	BW	Matrix	Slice	SAT	NEX	FOV	Other
#Sag/Cor FIESTA/bffe	min	min	60°	32	256x128	6	None	1	32x24	30 phases, 4 contiguous locations

#Instruct patient to begin provocative maneuver (e.g. Valsalva) when they here the noise, hold for about 10 seconds, and then relax.
NOTE: This sequence is similar to the cine peristalsis sequence used for MR Enterography
