Keywords: CEST & MT, CEST & MTIn this study, we proposed a steady state free precession CEST sequence with short saturation at 3T scanner. Our contributions are: 1) We investigated the SSFP process containing chemical saturation pulses and gave an approximate analytic solution. 2) Simulation and phantom results revealed that the proposed SSFP-CEST sequence had higher SNR and higher saturation efficiency than previous steady-state CEST, while the acquisition time was relatively short.
