Fast MR imaging attracts the interest of both clinicians and physicists because new diagnostic information arises with reduced artifacts due to short investigational times. With the acceleration of the Snapshot FLASH MR sequence, the measurement of high-resolution images with 256 x 256 matrix is reported, together with contrasting prepulses that are applied to attain contrast in combination with higher in-plane resolution. Measuring times are in the range of a second. For whole-body imaging, a TR = 5.2 msec and a TE = 2.6 msec could be attained measuring omit 256 x 256 matrix images. Artifact-free images demonstrating T1 contrast and contrast from chemical shift are performed on moving organs (heart, intestine) in different experiments. These applications can easily be performed in a couple of minutes for clinical use. Especially in the lung, short TE and high resolution result in a new imaging quality of pulmonary and mediastinal vessels.
