The T1CMR Phantom contains a range of nickel chloride in agarose solutions that mimic cardiac T1 and T2 values. T1 measurement is used to calculate the extravascular volume fraction (ECV) to detect diffuse myocardial fibrosis. It is provided to MRI Centres for the verification of T1-mapping stability across different 3.0T scanners (different manufacturers and models) and to understand the feasibility of delivering a “T1 standard”.

The T1CMR Phantom contains a range of nickel chloride in agarose solutions that mimic cardiac T1 and T2 values. T1 measurement is used to calculate the extravascular volume fraction (ECV) to detect diffuse myocardial fibrosis. It is provided to MRI Centres for the verification of T1-mapping stability across different 1.5T scanners (different manufacturers and models) and to understand the feasibility of delivering a “T1 standard”.

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) T2 mapping is key to quantifying myocardial inflammation. The T2CMR Phantom is made of nine (9) plastic tubes (30mL) containing different concentrations of nickel chloride (NiCl2) in agarose. T2CMR Phantom is provided to MRI Centres for the verification of T2-mapping stability across different 1.5T and 3T scanners (different manufacturers and models) and to understand the feasibility of delivering a “T2 standard”.
