Software Version

Please ensure to use BART at least in version

v0.8.00-188-g2619016

The visualization is based on python3. You need to have the packages

numpy, matplotlib, mpl_toolkits, sys, os 

installed.

Attention!

A non-prepared IR bSSFP is no standard sequence in BARTs simulation interface. Please comment out

Reproducibility

All simulations run with ./run.sh.

To run the simulations AND create figures execute: ./run_figs.sh.
