A new class of asymmetric adiabatic radiofrequency (RF) pulses, Hybrid Adiabatic Pulse with asYmmetry (HAPY), is designed to be used as the labeling pulse for Pulsed Arterial Spin labeling (PASL) at 7T to reduce overall specific absorption rate (SAR) while maintaining high labeling efficiency with B0$$ {\mathrm{B}}_0 $$ and B1+$$ {\mathrm{B}}_1^{+} $$ inhomogeneities.
