“…The CEST sequence was performed with single‐shot TSE readout 28,29 using the following parameters: FOV = 212 mm × 185.5 mm; acquisition resolution = 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm; turbo factor = 208; slice thickness = 5 mm; TE = 8.1 ms; RF saturation duration = 400, 700 and 1000 ms with corresponding TR = 3, 4 and 5 s, respectively (with corresponding recovery times of ~ 2.6, ~ 3.3 and ~ 4.0 s, respectively); RF saturation power = 1, 2, 3 and 4 μT; and total number of saturation duration and power combinations = 12. Specifically, the CEST saturation was achieved with multiple 100 ms‐long Gaussian pulse elements with a gap of 5 ms in between 30 . Furthermore, 63 CEST frames were acquired including an unsaturated reference image, and saturated images at 0, ±0.25, ±0.5, ±0.75, ±1, ±1.25, ±1.5, ±1.75 (2), ±2 (2), ±2.25 (2), ±2.5 (2), ±2.75 (2), ±3 (2), ±3.25 (2), ±3.5 (2), ±3.75 (2), ±4 (2), ±4.5, ±5, ±5.5, ±6 and 15.6 ppm, where the number in the parentheses represents the number of averages.…”
