Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for producing an image of a subject using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. The method includes designing a saturation-based labeling pulse sequence for an MRI process that includes radio-frequency (RF) pulses and gradients forming a ratio of RF slice-selection gradient to time-averaged gradient that maintains multiple aliased labeling planes within an envelope of the RF pulses. The method also includes performing the MRI process to acquire image data from the subject using the saturation-based labeling pulse sequence and reconstructing a saturation-based spin labeled images of the subject using image data.
