Abstract
Materials with different magnetic susceptibility can cause deformation of magnetic field in MR tomograph, resulting in errors in obtained image. Using simulation and experimental verification we can solve the effect of changes in homogeneity of static magnetic fields caused by specimen made from magnetic material. This paper describes theoreticalbase of the magnetic resonance imaging method for susceptibility measurement. The method uses deformation of magnetic induction field in specimen vicinity. For MR purposes it is necessary to immerse specimen into reference medium with measurable MR signal.
