Look-locker sequence

English to Spanish Medical Medical (general) Cardiac MRI
Este es un manual para un resonancia magnética cardíaca:

It is recommended that sites use a TI-scout or look-locker sequence to determine the optimal TI to null signal from normal myocardium

¿Cómo traducirían "look-locker"? Vi que en algunas páginas lo dejan en inglés, pero preferiría un término en español. Gracias.

Actually Look and Locker are both last names, it is a pulse sequence named after its inventors their "full" names are D.C. Look and D.R. Locker...this is why is left as is in Spanish :-) It should be written Look-Locker capital L for both

De hecho ambos son apellidos (Look y Locker)

A spectroscopic one-shot method was originally proposed by Look and Locker in 1968 and analysed more fully in 1970 (Look & Locker, 1970). It was co-opted by Kaptein et al in 1976 to quickly sample the recovery after a preparation pulse, during the recovery period or transient phase (Kaptein, Dijkstra & Tarr, 1976). This method was developed into the TOMROP imaging sequence (T One by Multiple Readout Pulses) (Graumann, BarfuS, Fischer, Hentschel et al., 1987). In TOMROP the multiple samples of a particular recovery after RF preparation each correspond to a separate image. To acquire a complete data set for each image, the whole sequence must be repeated numerous times. Each repetition fills the next line of k-space for each image, and so on. Each image has a unique delay time. Early Look-Locker (LL) based T1 techniques required the return to equilibrium of the spin system before the next application of an RF preparation pulse. Consequently, the acquisition time per slice of such implementations was long. Hinson and Sobol used a LL method with no preparation pulse (Hinson & Sobol, 1988) but the method suffered from poor accuracy, attributed to the slice profile.
