Abstract

The present disclosure describes, in part, a method for achieving depiction of mixtures of chemically shifted and on-resonance moieties using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology. The method can use a steady-state free precession sequence that can be optimized so that the chemically shifted moiety is in an out-of-phase passband in relation to the on-resonance moiety. This feature can enable detection of tissues with a small amount of the chemically shifted moiety with high sensitivity, including but not limited to detecting fat and water when imaging an organ.
