Abstract
The present embodiments are directed towards artifact reduction in slice select pulse sequences utilized in ultra short echo time imaging sequences. In one embodiment, a method includes determining a desired slice select thickness, determining a radiofrequency pulse shape and duration based upon the desired slice select thickness while maintaining a desired relationship between excitation k space and radiofrequency amplitude, and determining radiofrequency scaling based on the determined radiofrequency pulse shape and duration.
