Nominal values of the initial excitation angle (<i>p</i>0), flip angle of each sub-pulse (α), total flip angle (<i>TotalFA</i>), <i>B₁</i>+ intensity, total duration of the RF-pulses, echo times (TE) and repetition times (TR) for the experiments performed in phantom and <i>in vivo</i>, at 3.0 T and 7.0 T, with methods A–E.

<p>Also the parameters for the comparison with the DAM are listed. The echo times are calculated relatively to the center of the first sub-pulse for each method.</p
