Generates a virtual sample suitable for sequence simulation in ODIN

## NAME

gensample - Generates a virtual sample suitable for sequence simulation in ODIN

## DESCRIPTION

gensample: Generates a virtual sample suitable for sequence simulation in ODIN This program is part of odin 2.0.5 with configuration  using\_gcc debug gui(:5) standalone dl posix\_threads libz gsl nifti vtk dicom png ismrmrd gdb

### Usage and options:

-

  Create a sample from external maps:

- gensample **-fr** \<FOVread\> **-fp** \<FOVphase\> **-fs** \<FOVslice\> **-s0** \<spin-density\> \[-t1 \<T1map\>\] \[-t2 \<T2map\>\] \[-pm \<ppmMap\>\] \[-ir \<inplane-reduction\>\] \[-ss \<single-slice number\>\] \[-ft \<comma-separated-list of frame-rates for dymaic phantoms\>\]

  **-o** \<Sample-file\>

-

  Create a point-spread function:

-

  gensample **-psf** **-t1** \<point T1\> **-t2** \<point T2\> \[-dc \<DiffusionCoeff\>\] **-o** \<Sample-file\>

-

  Create rectangle of uniform spin distribution about origin in all 3 spatial dimensions:

-

  gensample **-uni** **-n** \<size\> **-f** \<FOV\> \[-t1 \<uniform T1\>\] \[-t2 \<uniform T2\>\] **-o** \<Sample-file\>

-

  Create an isochromat distribution:

-

  gensample **-iso** **-n** \<size\> **-df** \<freq-distribution-width\[kHz\]\> **-t1** \<point T1\> **-t2** \<point T2\> \[-dc \<point Dcoeff\>\] **-o** \<Sample-file\>

-

  Create a homogenous disk with given radius:

-

  gensample **-dsk** **-n** \<size\> **-f** \<FOV\> **-R** \<radius\> \[-t1 \<uniform T1\>\] \[-t2 \<uniform T2\>\] \[-dc \<uniform DiffusionCoeff\>\] **-o** \<Sample-file\>

-

  Create coaxial cylinder:

-

  gensample **-cyl** **-n** \<size\> **-f** \<FOV\> **-Xi** \<inner-suscept\[ppm\]\> **-Xo** \<outer-suscept\[ppm\]\> **-Ri** \<inner-radius\> **-Ro** \<outer-radius\> \[-t1 \<uniform T1\> **-t2** \<uniform T2\> **-sl** \<single-line\>\] **-o** \<Sample-file\>

### Other options:

**-v** \<loglevel\> or \<component:loglevel\> for debugging/tracing all components or a single component, respectively. Possible values for loglevel are: 0(noLog), 1(errorLog), 2(warningLog), 3(infoLog), 4(significantDebug), 5(normalDebug), 6(verboseDebug).
