✦ Synopsis

A method is described for multislice imaging by means of rf pulses which contain a multifrequency excitation spectrum. These pulses label each slice by an individual signal phase and allow the separation of the signals from all the slices by subsequent add/subtract procedures. The image sensitivity corresponds to the total number of acquisitions. Sequences for the imaging of an arbitrary number of slices with a minimum number of experiments are described.

## It is shown that spatially selective inversion and saturation can be achieved by concatenation of RF pulses with lower flip angles. A concatenation rule which enables global doubling of the flip angle of any given excitation pulse applied to initial z magnetization is proposed. In this fashion,
