Fatima El Kharraz

Fatima is a Msc from Mechanical engineering who is working on Creating a calibration system to ensure quality across different MRI scanners. Her work is carried out in Erasmus Mc. 

The title of the project is Quality Assurance of chest MRI: Variability in image quality and measurements across different MRI scanner brands presents a significant challenge in establishing accurate and reproducible quantitative imaging. A standard imaging software based on phantom data—an inanimate object designed to characterize and calibrate imaging systems—offers a potential solution for addressing scanner performance inconsistencies. Phantoms enable the evaluation of scanner stability, the calibration of imaging protocols, and the benchmarking of quantitative MRI measurements. The need for system stability assessment and cross-scanner comparability is growing yearly, as the focus of imaging shifts from qualitative to quantitative assessment.
