Test Objects
 

MagNET manufacturers a range of MRI test objects for use in measuring image quality parameters across a range of MR field strengths.

MagNET's new small bore/extremity coil test object produces superb image quality at 3T using (image courtesy of the Paul Strickland Scanner Centre).

MagNET's standard SE imaging protocol was used with 1 mm slice width and pixel size 0.27 mm. The test object's 0.3 mm and 0.4 mm line gratings are resolved.
