A method of magnetic resonance analysis of a body having therein at least one molecular species and water is disclosed. The method comprises, subtracting magnetic resonance signals induced by a second radiofrequency pulse sequence from magnetic resonance signals induced by a first radiofrequency pulse sequence followed by a evolution period. The first radiofrequency pulse sequence is selected so as to suppress magnetization for the water while preserving a generally longitudinal magnetization to the at least one molecular species. The second radiofrequency pulse sequence being selected so as to suppress transverse and longitudinal magnetization for both the water and the at least one molecular species.
