To clarify relations and mechanisms among
blood-perfusion, water-diffusion, water-fluctuation, and
biomechanics of the intracranial tissue, we developed an
original cranial phantom for magnetic resonance imaging.
The new cranial phantom consisted of a high-density
polypropylene filter with intra- and extra-filter
spaces, and a capacitor space, which were filled with
water at 17 degrees centigrade. These correspond to a
brain parenchyma, artery and vein, and cerebrospinal
fluid space, respectively. Our original phantom makes it
possible to clarify relations and mechanisms among
blood-perfusion, water-diffusion, water-fluctuation, and
biomechanics of intracranial tissue. Perfusion,
diffusion, fluctuation, and biomechanics of the
intracranial tissue interact in diverse ways.
