Abstract
A phantom for magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is provided. In particular, systems and methods for a phantom that is capable of generating a wave-like pattern in MRE images where a wavelength of the generated wave-like pattern is controlled by the phantom geometry. The geometrically controlled wavelength enables the phantom to calibrate MRE image acquisition and mechanical property calculation.
