Abstract
We have reworked the theory of RF excitation to enable correction for relaxivity while designing response‐modulated excitation (RME) to achieve specifled magnetization targets. This results in a significant improvement in the ability to achieve a specified target magnetization, especially if excitation time is long or T~2~ is short. The methods presented may also be used to improve the quality of spatial‐spectral pulses as well as localized spectroscopy, real‐time imaging, real‐time localized velocity, and noninvasive pressure measurement.
