Synthetic b0 correction results in reasonable distortion corrections, qualitatively similar to state of the art (topup). (A) Axial and sagittal slices of the T1-weighted image are shown with edges highlighted. (B) Axial slices of the volumes with PE in the anterior (PE-A) and posterior (PE-P) directions, the topup corrected image, and that corrected using the synthetic b0 image are shown for both b0 image and FA maps, shown in T1 space. (C) Sagittal slices of the volumes with PE in the anterior (PE-A) and posterior (PE-P) directions, the topup corrected image, and that corrected using the synthetic b0 image are shown for both b0 image and FA maps, shown in T1 space. The blue circles highlight areas of observable signal distortion, which are qualitatively corrected in the topup-corrected and synthetic b0-corrected images.
