We have developed a lightweight, interpreted language for specifying MR pulse sequences using XML and JavaScript. In analogy to web programming with HTML and JavaScript, this allows rapid prototyping of pulse sequences that are portable across platforms and easy to modify. This specification was implemented within the SpinBench pulse-programming environment, freely available online.
