Numerical simulation of trabecular bone magnetic resonance imaging.
A numerical simulation of trabecular bone structure MR imaging is described. The input of the model is derived from synchrotron 3D muCT trabecular bone images with a resolution of 14mummu14mumx14mum. The static magnetic field perturbation in the bone sample induced by the differences in magnetic susceptibility values between mineralized bone and bone marrow is computed and the MRI experiment for a selected imaging sequence is modeled.
