The technique utilizes exciting the subject matter with alternating RF pulse sequences. The alternating RF pulse sequences are configured such that the phase of the frequency component corresponding to the solvent is offset each alternation by an amount, typically 180°, which results in full spatial separation of the solvent signal from the signal of interest after processing.Other References
