Characterization of a dielectric phantom for high‐field magnetic resonance imaging applications

Abstract

It is expected that the recipe will be useful for generating dielectric phantoms for general magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) coil development at high magnetic field strength, including coil safety evaluation as well as pulse sequence evaluation (including B₁(+) mapping, B₁(+) shimming, and selective excitation pulse design), and other non-MRI applications which require biologically equivalent dielectric properties.
