Model-driven analysis of biophysical phenomena is gaining increased attention and utility for medical imaging applications. In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the availability of well-established models for describing the relations between the nuclear magnetization, tissue properties, and the externally applied magnetic fields has enabled the prediction of image contrast and served as a powerful tool for designing the imaging protocols that are now routinely used in the clinic. Recently, various advanced imaging techniques have relied on these models for image reconstruction, quantitative tissue parameter extraction, and automatic optimization of acquisition protocols. In molecular MRI, however, the increased complexity of the imaging scenario, where the signals from various chemical compounds and multiple proton pools must be accounted for, results in exceedingly long model simulation times, severely hindering the progress of this approach and its dissemination for various clinical applications. Here, we show that a deep-learning-based system can capture the nonlinear relations embedded in the molecular MRI Bloch-McConnell model, enabling a rapid and accurate generation of biologically realistic synthetic data. The applicability of this simulated data for in-silico, in-vitro, and in-vivo imaging applications is then demonstrated for chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) and semisolid macromolecule magnetization transfer (MT) analysis and quantification. The proposed approach yielded 78%-99% acceleration in data synthesis time while retaining excellent agreement with the ground truth (Pearson's r$>0.99, p<$0.0001, normalized root mean square error $<$3%).
