A pipeline based on the XCAT phantom, the JEMRIS software for simulating the MR signal and a commercial reconstruction pipeline has been set-up for simulating realistic brain MRI images. Using this pipeline, an anatomically variable brain MRI population is simulated across age and gender. Anatomical variation is generated by means of changing individual brain sizes, and cortical gray matter volumes to mimic aging brain. MS lesions are simulated to mimic diseased brain as well. Significant contrast is generated across detailed brain structures. The commercial reconstruction pipeline increased the realism of simulated data.

After one year, current ISMRM & ISMRT members get free access to both the abstracts and videos. Non-members and non-registrants must purchase access via the ISMRM E-Library.
After two years, the meeting proceedings (abstracts) are opened to the public and require no login information. Videos remain behind password for access by members, registrants and E-Library customers.
