To evaluate the performance of clinical magnetic resonance imaging systems, standard test procedures have been recommended by the NEMA, AAPM task group, EEC concerted research project, and others. The purpose of these standard tests is to determine system performance specifications, reference procedures for test acceptance, and periodic examination of quality control. However, the recommended measurements are very complicated when used for periodic quality control checks or comparisons with other systems. Therefore, we determined new standard test procedures that serve these purposes. Eleven clinical MRI systems in nine clinical facilities were evaluated using these new standard test sets. Results indicated that the measurement time was too short using the new test sets. However, through comparison with various MRI systems, the specificity of each system could be determined.
