High‐resolution three‐dimensional (3D) post‐contrast imaging of the brain is essential for comprehensive evaluation of inflammatory, neoplastic, and neurovascular diseases of the brain. 3D T1‐weighted spin‐echo‐based sequences offer increased sensitivity for the detection of enhancing lesions but are relatively prolonged examinations. We evaluated whether a highly accelerated Wave‐controlled aliasing in parallel imaging (Wave‐CAIPI) post‐contrast 3D T1‐sampling perfection with application‐optimized contrasts using different flip angle evolutions (T1‐SPACE) sequence (Wave‐T1‐SPACE) was noninferior to the standard high‐resolution 3D T1‐SPACE sequence for visualizing enhancing lesions with comparable diagnostic quality.
