Generalization of Optimal Control Saturation Pulse Design for Robust and High CEST Contrast

The generalized OC pulse provides a robust and flexible alternative to conventional CEST saturation strategies. Its integration into the open-source Pulseq-CEST framework supports simple reproducibility and a vendor-independent implementation.
