pH‐weighted amide proton transfer (APT) MRI is promising to serve as a new surrogate metabolic imaging biomarker for refined ischemic tissue demarcation. APT MRI with pulse‐RF irradiation (pulse‐APT) is an alternative to the routine continuous wave (CW‐) APT MRI that overcomes the RF duty cycle limit. Our study aimed to generalize the recently developed pH‐specific magnetization transfer and relaxation‐normalized APT (MRAPT) analysis to pulse‐APT MRI in acute stroke imaging.
