<p>Bloch simulation of longitudinal steady state magnetization (Mzss) temporal variation in one repetition time (TR) at different flip angle (FA) (unit: degree). Mzss achieved steady state much more quickly as FA increased. Short recovery of longitudinal magnetization during water suppression was compensated for in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0215210#pone.0215210.e001" target="_blank">Eq 1</a>. RD: recovery delay between PRESS and the interleaved RF and gradient pulses (iPFG) train.</p>
