 +====== CEST sources ====== 
 +Welcome to //CEST sources//! CEST stands for Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer, a Magnetic Resonance Imaging ([[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRI|MRI]]) technique which promises insight into pathologies on a molecular level. If you want to know more about CEST, find details in the [[CEST intro]] or [[the reviews]]. //CEST sources// is a project to share code, link resources, and bundle knowledge about CEST. //CEST sources// is intended for helping researchers and students in the field of CEST and magnetization transfer. Most code is in Matlab but we try to upload other implementations, too.
  
 +==== Overview====
 +Find below the different sections of CEST sources. For now the focus is on Z-spectra evaluation methods, and Z-spectra simulation and fitting. Each subsection contains links to code and video tutorials. All code is kept simple to be easily adjustable for your scientific question. If you have a suggestion for a video tutorial feel free to [[http://www.kyb.tuebingen.mpg.de/nc/de/employee/details/mzaiss.html|contact us]].

 +Download links to all packages can be found on the github page [[https://github.com/cest-sources|github.com/cest-sources]]. ([[About github]])

 +===== - Analytical solutions of the Bloch-McConnell equations =====
 +Here you find Z-spectrum simulations in the case of a two and three pool systems under continous wave (cw) irradiation. For a two pool system also the solution for pulsed spinlock irradiation is given.

 +Here you find methods for CEST quantification. This means to achieve access to the CEST pool parameters as defined in the Bloch-McConnell equations such as exchange rate, concentration and transverse relaxation of the CEST site.
