Schematic illustration of a blood vessel approximated by the infinite cylinder model. Due to paramagnetic dHb, MR signal in the blood has additional phase (Δφblood) compared to surrounding reference tissue (Δφref). The phase difference (Δφ) and vessel angle (θ) are the two imaging-derived parameters used to compute Yv in equation (21).
