## Abstract In this study, it is demonstrated that fat saturation (FS) preparation (prep) pulses generate incidental magnetization transfer contrast (MTC) in multislice LookβLocker (LL) imaging. It is shown that frequencyβselective FS prep pulses can invoke MTC through the exchange between free and
Selective saturation of bound nuclei attenuates the MR visible CH 2 and the CH 3 signal of total creatine (tCr) in rat brain in vivo. The low contrast to noise ratio achieved during the limited experiment time makes it difficult to quantify the effect. It is shown that by combining data from continu
