<P>The performance of multiple quantum filters (MQFs) can be disappointing when the background signal also arises from coupled spins. Moreover, at 3.0 T and even higher fields the majority of the spin systems of key brain metabolites fall into the strong-coupling regime. In this manuscript we address comprehensively, the importance of the phase of the multiple quantum coherence-generating pulse (MQ-pulse) in the design of MQFs, using both product operator and numerical analysis, in both zero and double quantum filter designs. The theoretical analyses were experimentally validated with the examples of myo-inositol editing and the separation of glutamate from glutamine. The results demonstrate that the phase of the MQ-pulse per se provides an additional spectral discrimination mechanism based on the degree of coupling beyond the conventional level-of-coherence approach of MQFs. To obtain the best spectral discrimination of strongly-coupled spin systems, therefore, the phase of the MQ-pulse must be included in the portfolio of the sequence parameters to be optimized.</P>
