In MRI signal, phase is proportional to the local resonance frequency and therefore directly reflects magnetic field changes induced by local magnetic susceptibility sources. Composed of hemosiderin, cerebral microbleed can act as susceptibility sources and generate local dipole magnetic field. Here, we introduce a physically motivated fast 2D phase processing technique including unwrapping and harmonic filtering which yields the internal field. We demonstrate its applicability and robustness on multicenter 2D datasets acquired in standardized clinical setting to discriminate cerebral microbleeds.
