[Abstract] The simultaneous multi-slice (SMS) technique utilizes a multiband radiofrequency pulse to excite and acquire multiple slices simultaneously, which represents the beginning of a new era of multi-slice magnetic resonance imaging. At present, the rapid imaging technology has been commercialized and put into clinical use, the scope of research has also been extended from the nervous system to other parts and organs of the body. This article reviews a large number of literatures and reviews the progress of the research on the application of SMS technique.
