Multiplexing of slices using the NEX/averaging dimension is an option for clinical MR protocols to improve SNR without imposing a scan time penalty. Hadamard encoding and decoding imposes Hadamard factors as limits where in only powers of 2 is used. We propose to use a Hadamard like encoding scheme but decode differently to yield a reduced effective NEX and improved motion sensitivity. This enables us to use any integer multiband factors.
