Balanced steady‐state free precession (bSSFP) sequences can provide superior signal‐to‐noise ratio efficiency for hyperpolarized (HP) carbon‐13 (13C) magnetic resonance imaging by efficiently utilizing the nonrecoverable magnetization, but managing their spectral response is challenging in the context of metabolic imaging. A new spectrally selective bSSFP sequence was developed for fast imaging of multiple HP 13C metabolites with high spatiotemporal resolution.
