We developed an open-source package (github.com/mloecher/GIRFbench) to acquire, process, and benchmark GIRF measurement strategies to better standardize and understand these techniques. Estimated GIRFs reduced PC-MRI background velocity errors to ≤0.4% of VENC and corrected spiral trajectories to within ∆k=0.31 m-1.
Qualitative comparisons of GIRF corrections of a spiral SPGR dataset in (A-D) resolution phantom and (E-H) head of a volunteer.
Slightly improved data quality is seen with GIRF correction compared to simple gradient delay correction, with no discernable differences between the two GIRF corrections.
Differences are shown for (uncorrected-delay corrected), (delay corrected-GIRF corrected), and between the two GIRF corrections.
The last comparison was scaled by 5x to show the small differences.
a) shows an example of programmed waveforms, field camera measured waveforms, and two GIRF predictions for a trapezoid waveform and two spiral waveforms.

b) RMSE between GIRF prediction and measured waveforms shown in a), where the thin-slice phantom measurement performs slightly worse.
c) RMSE for GIRFs estimated with different test waveforms shows little difference.
d) results of filtering the field camera GIRF with a FWHM=8kHz gaussian, which caused much more error in the prediction.
