sth about DIXON

Hi, I am new to MRI and I find this website very useful ! I would like to ask sth about DIXON and india Ink.

In the India ink page, to my understanding, it is just obtaining OOP images .
it showed that OOP only happens when there is fat and water coexist in the voxel. if there is pure fat or pure water, OOP wont happen. That how india ink is formed

So when it comes to DIXON, a pure fat or water should show the same intensity in both IP and OOP, so in DIXON fat only image wont cancel out each others ???? and only voxel coexist fat and water show fat signal ???

I am not an expert in human anatomy, Could I assume, macroscopically there are no pure fat or water in human body , so fat always coexist with water and DIXON could work
