Abstract:
Current injected into a phantom model generated a magnetic field which was distorted above a simulated atherosclerotic lesion. The output of a Hall effect magnetic sensor was used in a backprojection to reconstruct the centroid of the simulated blood flow and thus localize the modeled atherosclerotic plaque region.
