Abstract
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) represents a non-invasive imaging technique sensitive to microscopic diffusion, allowing quantification of the behaviour of water diffusion within human tissue. This tool contributes to the meaningful characterization of the skeletal muscle architecture and arrangement, which are important determinants of the muscle’s functional features. However, due to the inconsistent character of the DTI quantification, there is a need for phantom validation of DTI analysis techniques. Therefore, this study aims to develop a DTI phantom that would serve as a muscle diffusion model, focussing to replicate the diffusion attributes found in skeletal muscle.
