Four-Dimensional Analytical Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Phantom in the Fourier Domain
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction A 2D analytical cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) phantom in the Fourier domain was introduced by Brummer et al. [1] to compare acceleration strategies based on a reduction of the field of view. In related work by our group and others the value of a standardized simulation phantom to test and compare reconstruction methods for cardiac imaging has become evident. In this work, a 4D analytical phantom in the Fourier domain is proposed, aimed to serve as a flexible, objective, standardized benchmark for evaluation and comparison of different image reconstruction techniques in dynamic 3D MRI.

Design and Fabrication of a Four-Dimensional Respiratory Phantom for Studying Tumor Movement in Radiotherapy with Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Introduction: In radiation therapy, determining the location of the tumor accurately during irradiation is one of the most important requirements. However, lung tumors are not fixed in a single location and move during irradiation due to respiratory motion. Due to limitations in assessing such movements, using a lung phantom can be useful and operational for their fast, easy an...
متن کاملThree-dimensional analytical magnetic resonance imaging phantom in the Fourier domain.
This work presents a basic framework for constructing a 3D analytical MRI phantom in the Fourier domain. In the image domain the phantom is modeled after the work of Kak and Roberts on a 3D version of the famous Shepp-Logan head phantom. This phantom consists of several ellipsoids of different sizes, orientations, locations, and signal intensities (or gray levels). It will be shown that the k-s...

متن کاملGeometric distortion evaluation of magnetic resonance images by a new large field of view phantom for magnetic resonance based radiotherapy purposes
Background: The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiotherapy planning method have been considered in recent years because of the advantages of MRI and the problems of planning with two images modality. The first step in MRI-based radiotherapy is to evaluate magnetic resonance (MR) images geometric distortion. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate system related geometric distort...
