A Dual Fly-Back Spectral-Spatial RF Pulse for Lipid Suppression and Reduced Susceptibility Artifacts

Weiran Deng¹, Cungeng Yang¹, V A. Stenger¹

A fly-back dual-band spectral-spatial RF pulse for simultaneous lipid suppression and B₀ inhomogeneity correction is presented. This pulse provides a simple and analytical alternative to previously proposed numerical solutions. The improvement is shown with in vivo structural and functional MRI data.
