Use of Multiband and high-TBW RF pulses in SSFP sequences is limited due to their long pulse duration and high RF energy. These two properties are not independent of each other, as shorter RF pulses lead to higher RF energy and often violate SAR limitations when using short repetition times (TR). We show how Time-optimal VERSE can be used to produce pulses that are optimized for minimum TR performance with both single and multi-band examples.
