Abstract

A magnetic resonance CEST imaging sequence and device based on a frequency stabilization module are provided. It includes following steps: first, in the frequency stabilization module, exciting a target slice with a small-flip-angle radio frequency pulse, and collecting three lines of non-phase-encoded k-space data; second, obtaining an estimated value of the frequency drift of the main magnetic field by calculating the phase difference between the three lines of non-phase encoded k-space data; third, adjusting a center frequency of the radio frequency pulse based on the calculation result of the frequency drift of the main magnetic field, to realize a real-time correction of the frequency drift of the main magnetic field; and fourth, performing conventional magnetic resonance CEST imaging.
