Outline of Final Research Achievements

We performed MR imaging and analysis in nine healthy subjects with different postures. To investigate the influence of cerebral pulsation, we performed imaging synchronously by electrocardiogram in one subject and imaging with a physiological saline agar phantom was performed in order to examine the influence of sensitivity unevenness in the head coil. We developed an automatic positioning program for head data based on inner ear structure. From this study, it was suggested that displacement and deformation differ between the brain surface and the deep brain, even in the postural change at resting state. We made a prototype model of the left frontotemporal craniotomy with soft brain incorporated. Although it was examined that reflecting to the material the elastic modulus of the brain by referring to the result obtained from the elastic modulus measurement in the excised brain tumor tissue, it was extremely difficult to model.
