During the last decade, several numerical methods for RF
pulse design have been developed. Recently, the
magnitude least squares (MLS) and the multi-shift
conjugate gradient least squares (msCGLS) algorithms
have been proposed to relax the phase constraint in the
resulting magnetization and to efficiently design RF
pulses with minimum power. In this study, we present a
multi-shift MLS (msMLS) algorithm which presents both
advantages of the MLS and the multi-shift approach
