The field of MRI is rapidly moving towards more
quantitative approaches. In this context, virtual
phantoms that would provide a reference signal could be
useful for quantification purposes in MRI. The aim of
the present study was i) to implement a dedicated
experimental set-up to generate MR images of virtual
phantoms ii) to test its temporal stability and signal
linearity. This approach is here referred to as Virtual
Phantom (ViP) MRI. MR images of virtual phantoms were
generated using a stand-alone, independent unit. Thus,
ViP MRI can be performed on MR scanners from different
vendors.
