Multiple-echo steady-state (MESS): Extending DESS for joint T2 mapping and chemical-shift corrected water-fat separation.

In the same acquisition time as DESS, MESS provides water-fat separation with comparable SNR in the reconstructed water and fat images. By providing additional image contrasts in addition to the water-selective DESS images, MESS provides a promising alternative to DESS.
