Zusammenfassung:A method and an apparatus for enhancing signals in magnetic resonance imaging are provided. The method includes the following steps. Applying one or more than one RF pulse, which carries at least two frequency components, and a slice/slab selection gradient to a subject, so that at least two slices/slabs of the subject respectively corresponding to the at least two frequency components are excited simultaneously. Applying a plurality of spatial encoding gradients and one or more than one separation gradients for separating the at least two slices/slabs. Receiving a plurality of responsive RF signals excited from the subject. The responsive RF signals are restored according to a signal restoration function.
