The signal analysis and related spectrum. (a) The exchange of exchangeable solute protons and bulk water protons leads to a decrease in bulk water signals. Black line: signal intensity of water before RF irradiation; red line: signal intensity of water after RF irradiation. (b) Z-spectrum or CEST spectrum. (c) MTR asymmetry analysis.
