Multidimensional spatially selective excitation pulses rely on the accuracy of gradient waveforms to achieve desired excitation volumes, Unfortunately, the high gradient slew-rates and magnitudes required by these pulses often lead to distortion of the waveforms produced by imaging systems resulting in poor selection profiles, In this paper, a k-space calibration procedure, used to determine the actual trajectory produced by the scanner's field gradients, is extended to two spatial dimensions, This measured information is then incorporated in a selective excitation design technique for correcting the RF pulse envelopes to compensate for gradient waveform induced distortion of the excitation volumes.
