Abstract:This work compared the reconstruction errors (REs) of the currently popular algorithm of MR-based
electrical properties tomography (MR EPT) while applied in inhomogeneous object at 1.5, 3 and 7 T. The
B1 +
data of an inhomogeneous phantom were simulated at the three resonance frequencies. The currently
popular algorithm of MR EPT was used to reconstruct the electrical property (EP) distributions inside
the phantom. The absolute RE (aRE) and relative RE (rRE) maps in addition to the mean rREs were
calculated to compare the REs occurring at different resonance frequencies. The maximums of maximum
and mean rREs were observed at 1.5T, on the contrary, the minimums of maximum and mean rREs
were observed at 7T. The REs varied with different resonance frequencies, and the REs decreased as the
resonance frequency increased.
