MRIsim.jl
MRIsim.jl is a Julia package to simulate Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) acquisitions. The main focus of this package is to simulate general scenarios that could arise in pulse sequence development.
TO-DO:
- Phantom and Sequence data-types,
- Spin preccesion in gradient-only blocks,
- GPU accelaration using CUDA.jl,
- RF excitation,
- GPU accelaration of RF excitation (under development),
- Pulseq IO and auxiliary functions,
- Signal "Raw Output" dictionary (ISMRMRD),
- MRIReco.jl for the reconstruciton,
- Scanner data-type: , etc.,
- Diffusion models with Laplacian Eigen Functions,
- Magnetic susceptibility,
- Coil sensitivities,
- Documentation.

Installation
To install just do the following:
] add MRIsim
First run
MRIsim.jl comes with a handy GUI that contains a brain phantom with an EPI sequence. To open it use:
SpinLab()
Then, press the button that says "Run simulation!" to do your first simulation :).
