ABSTRACT:
In a method for operating a magnetic resonance apparatus with a steady-state pulse sequence and a magnetic resonance apparatus for implementing the method, to reduce magnetization in an examination subject outside of a slice of interest, an RF pulse acting selectively on a slice of interest and an RF pulse acting non-selectively on a slice of interest are alternately emitted to an examination subject in a steady-state pulse sequence.
