Abstract
⺠We report a new MRI radiofrequency pulse design algorithm based on optimal control. ⺠Spin refocusing non-uniformities are addressed using tailored RF pulses. ⺠The target rotation matrix is synthesized with a phase-free rotation axis. ⺠In vitro spin-echo experiments demonstrate the potential of the optimization algorithm. ⺠Performance obtained is quantified using Quantum Process Tomography.
