Computer-Implemented Method for Operating a Magnetic Resonance Device, Magnetic Resonance Device, Computer Program and Electronically Readable Data Medium

An apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
• determine a magnetic resonance sequence comprising a saturation section including a saturation radiofrequency pulse generated in response to application of a saturation gradient pulse, a saturation with respect to a spin species that is to be imaged being performed in at least one first saturation region, wherein the saturation radiofrequency pulse is configured as a multiband pulse adapted to saturate magnetization with respect to a second spin species that is not to be captured;
• and
• control a magnetic resonance device to acquire magnetic resonance data based on the determined magnetic resonance sequence.

A magnetic resonance device comprising:

• a main magnet unit including a main magnet configured to generate a main magnetic field;
• a gradient coil array configured to generate gradient pulses;
• a radiofrequency coil array configured to generate radiofrequency pulses;
• and
• a controller configured to control an acquisition of magnetic resonance data and acquire image data from an examination region of an examination object based on a magnetic resonance sequence,
• wherein the magnetic resonance sequence comprises a saturation section in which, by a saturation radiofrequency pulse configured as a multiband pulse which is generated in response to an application of a saturation gradient pulse, both a saturation with respect to a spin species that is to be imaged in at least one first saturation region is performed, and, in at least one second saturation region, magnetization with respect to a second spin species that is not to be captured is saturated.
