Abstract
⺠Slice-selective broadband 180° refocusing pulses (S-BREBOP) designed with optimal control theory. ⺠Optimized for generating crushed spin-echoes in point-resolved spectroscopy (PRESS). ⺠Broad bandwidth over range of ±20% B1 scalings. ⺠Reduce chemical-shift displacement error by factor of 2.5 compared to conventional Shinnar-Le Roux pulses. ⺠Increase lactate signal in phantom and human brain tumor.
