DCS MRI image simulation

A web-based tool for creating DSC Digital Reference Objects

The purpose of this project is to provide a web-based interface to several software packages that create DSC simulations. three models are available for creating images that create simulated DSC perfusion data which can be used for creating simulated images.

The software takes the signal profiles for each tissue type in a 3D anthropomorphic head model to produce the 4D data set simulating a perfusion acquisition.

The following models are available:
