A GPU optimized fast Bloch simulator was developed for arbitrary pulse sequence inputs. The simulator was applied to multi-slice imaging using 256×256×512 calculation matrix. As a result, we found that the number of short pulses used to approximate the selective excitation pulse and the number of subvoxels used for imaging in the cross-sectional plane were essential to simulation speed.
