Abstract
A method of making a phantom for NMR diagnosis contains the steps of placing at least one small container having at least a portion of its wall made of a thin film of a plastic material in a large container made of a plastic material, charging a first aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol into the small container, charging a second aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol into a space defined by the outer wall of the small container and the inner wall of the large container, freezing the first and second aqueous solutions of polyvinyl alcohol to obtain frozen masses, and then thawing the frozen masses. A composition of the first aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol is different from a composition of the second aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol.
