title: Simultaneous multi-slice excitation in spatially encoded NMR experiments.
abstract: Improved sensitivity: A novel strategy to enhance the experimental sensitivity in spatially encoded NMR experiments has been developed. The use of a multiple-frequency modulated pulse applied simultaneously to an encoding gradient can afford a substantial sensitivity gain with respect to single-slice selected experiments.
