exported as a `.seq` file to be run on Siemens, [GE], [Bruker] and now also Philips hardware by leveraging their respective Pulseq interpreters. This tool is targeted at MRI pulse sequence designers, researchers, students and other interested
users. It is a translation of the Pulseq framework originally written in Matlab [[3]][section-references].

👉 Currently, PyPulseq is compatible with Pulseq >= 1.4.0. 👈

It is strongly recommended to first read the [Pulseq specification] before proceeding. The specification
document defines the concepts required for pulse sequence design using PyPulseq.
