3. Fig. 2
Comparison of simulations and analytical calculations. The left plot shows results for a sphere, and the right plot results for a cylinder transverse to the magnetic field. Shown are the local B-fields for the respective calculations, as well as the difference between them. Results are shown for cross-sections going through the centre of the objects. For the local B-fields, solid lines represent the analytical calculations, and dashed lines the simulated values.

4. Fig. 3
Simulated normalized local B-field and histograms of the resulting distortion at four different areas of a patient. The panels to the left of the image present histograms of the local B-field [ppm]. In the panels to the right are histograms of the simulated distortion [pixels]. The resulting distortions were calculated for a 440Hz frequency encoding bandwidth in a 3T MRI system.
