  • Evaluated the method using 3T and 7T MRI data from various brain regions, including the cortex, basal ganglia, and substantia nigra.

    • Main Results:

    • The optimized reconstruction significantly improved phase image contrast and noise suppression compared to conventional methods.
    • The correlation test criterion provided an objective approach for separating local phase signals from background phase measurements.
    • Calculated phase values for key brain regions: gray matter (-1.23 Hz at 7T, -0.55 Hz at 3T), caudate (-3.8 Hz at 7T), and substantia nigra (-6.2 Hz at 7T).

    Conclusions:

    • The developed framework enhances phase contrast imaging for in vivo biodistribution studies of paramagnetic materials.
    • The optimized reconstruction and objective background phase removal methods are crucial for accurate quantification in MRI.
