MRI-Based Quantification of Magnetic Susceptibility in Gel Phantoms : Assessment of Measurement and Calculation Accuracy
The local magnetic field inside and around an object in a magnetic resonance imaging unit depends on the magnetic susceptibility of the object being magnetized, in combination with its geometry/orientation. Magnetic susceptibility can thus be exploited as a source of tissue contrast, and susceptibility imaging may also become a useful tool in contrast agent quantification and for assessment of ven
