Using
a well characterized serial dilution lipid-water phantom we were able to
simulate signal intensity results to determine the appropriate range of
sequence parameter values over which we could experimentally validate
measured lipid-water ratios on existing clinical 2D technique as well as
using a recently available 3D Dixon technique.
