Our objective is to develop a phantom that can evaluate the image distortion along the body axis objectively, and elucidate the relationship between the occurrence and geometrical position of image distortion in MRA. As a result, the phantom that we have developed has made it possible to evaluate image distortion objectively over a wide range of the trunk. We made clear that when separated from the center of the magnetic field in vertical or horizontal directions, image distortion became larger with the increase in distance.
