Anisotropic diffusion phantom for calibration of diffusion tensor imaging pulse sequences used in MRI
Abstract:
The subject matter of the invention concerns the anisotropic diffusion phantom for the calibration of any diffusion MR-DTI imaging sequence and a method for the calibration of all the MRI scanners by using anisotropic diffusion models based on the “b” matrix, which is a quantity specific for every magnetic resonance (MR) imaging sequence and the MRI scanner used. It has application in the study of solids, amorphous materials, liquids and biological tissues. The anisotropic diffusion phantom for the calibration of any MR imaging sequence is any anisotropic diffusion model of any shape for the hydrogen H2 contained in H2O or LC, for example. The diffusion standard according to the invention is preferably a pipe with a bundle of capillaries filled with H2O, hydrogel or any other substance that contains hydrogen nuclei or any volume, preferably cylindrical, filled with H2O, hydrogel or any other substance that contains hydrogen nuclei or densely filled with non-magnetic cylindrical rods free of hydrogen nuclei.
