Presaturation Power Adjusted Pulsed CEST: A Method to Increase Independence of Target CEST Signals

<div>These are a set of representative coronal CEST maps at 3.0 ppm superimposed on T2-weighted images obtained with the presaturation amplitude of 2.3 <i>µ</i>T and 5.5 <i>µ</i>T, and the subtracted maps between the two power levels before and after injection of the Glu plus high-Nic solutions. The CEST maps are relatively homogeneous over most of the kidney, but small changes are evident after injection of mixed solution, especially in the medulla.</div>
