Liquid crystal phantom for validation of microscopic diffusion anisotropy measurements on clinical MRI systems

PURPOSE: To develop a phantom for validating MRI pulse sequences and data processing methods to quantify microscopic diffusion anisotropy in the human brain. METHODS: Using a liquid crystal consisting of water, detergent, and hydrocarbon, we designed a 0.5‐L spherical phantom showing the theoretical...
