A phantom for the quantitative determination and improvement of the spatial resolution in slice-selective 2D-FT magnetic resonance micro-imaging and -microscopy based on Deep X-ray Lithography (DXRL)
Abstract:Introduction: The most important assessed quality-control (QC) criteria for improvements in high-resolution imaging are represented by the contrast-to-noise-ratio and spatial resolution. Ultra-High-Field (UHF) Magnetic-Resonance-scanners (B ≥ 7 T) for medical research allowed for the improvement in spatial resolution up to the microimaging and nominal microscopy range [pixel-size: ps < (100 μm)2], even in-vivo on humans just recently. Preclinical MRI- and dedicated MR-microscopy (MRM) scanners already a… Show more
