Abstract

A family of new onโ€resonance saturation pulses for magnetization transfer in MRI is proposed. These pulses can be represented as a product of a shaped function and a cosine function. The shaped function can have many different forms, one of which is a Gaussian function. The experimental results on a 1.0 T whole body scanner show that the new onโ€resonance pulses are more efficient for magnetization transfer than either onโ€resonance binomial sequence pulses or offresonance Gaussian pulses at the same power level.

Magnetic resonance imaging methods have been developed which simultaneously measure the bulk magnetic resonance parameters of many samples contained in stacks of multi-well sample plates using either a 2.35 T, 31 cm or a 2 T, 100 cm horizontal bore magnet each with a quadrature "birdcageร resonator.
