Design of RF pulses for parallel excitation using phased array transmit coils in MRI requires the B1+ maps that are estimated from B1+ mapping experiments. This paper characterizes the effects of B1+ mapping errors on the resulting excitation pattern using a small perturbation analysis based on linearization of the Bloch equation. The accuracy of the proposed perturbation analysis is validated...
Large-tip-angle multidimensional radio-frequency (RF) pulse design is a difficult problem, due to the nonlinear response of magnetization to applied RF at large tip-angles. In parallel excitation, multidimensional RF pulse design is further complicated by the possibility for transmit field patterns to change between subjects, requiring pulses to be designed rapidly while a subject lies in the scanner...
