contents Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM) describes a range of approaches to detect nuclear spins with mechanical sensors. MRFM has the potential to enable magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with near-atomic spatial resolution, opening up exciting possibilities in solid state and biological research. In many cases, the spin-mechanics coupling in MRFM is engineered with the help of periodic radio-frequency pulses. In this paper, we report that such pulses can result in unwanted parametric amplification of the mechanical vibrations, causing misinterpretation of the measured signal. We show how the parametric effect can be cancelled by auxiliary radio-frequency pulses or by appropriate post-correction after careful calibration. Future MRFM measurements may even make use of the parametric amplification to reduce the impact of amplifier noise
