Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to quantify the fat fraction in nine fat-water phantoms containing 0-80% fat using opposed-phase imaging with the qualitative guidance of 1H MR spectroscopy (MRS), which was used by observer 1 to visually assess the sizes of the water and fat peaks to apply tw...
