Simulation of B0 magnetic field conditions in the human heart for improved diagnostic MRI
The consistency between simulation and in vivo measurements of B<sub>0</sub> field conditions in the human heart from patients exhibiting various cardiac conditions fully validates the established B<sub>0</sub> simulation approach. This approach can accurately compute the air-tissue interface-induced inhomogeneous magnetic field shapes and amplitudes from readily available structural CT images, setting the stage for the development of tailored and advanced cardiac B<sub>0</sub> magnetic field correction methods and more robust cardiac MRI.
