Inhomogeneous magnetization transfer (ihMT) imaging has been recently proposed as new technique for white matter imaging. Whereas its feasibility for small animal studies has been demonstrated, optimization of the ihMT signal and contrast is required. This constituted the subject of this work, which presents optimization of a 2D pulsed ihMT technique for preclinical investigation at very high magnetic field (11.75T).
