A 3D Sketchup model of a spherical phantom placeholder designed to accommodate interchangeable phantom supports (pictured). The placeholder is designed to fit a NOVA 32 channel head coil for a 7T MRI system. The interchangeable supports include a hollow ring-like support and a solid support. The two supports will test the effects of air-solid susceptibility difference on the B0 inhomogeneity, and whether a solid support is more suitable for MRI purposes.
