MRI Phantom Amnesty: A community to upcycle phantoms to LMIC settings

Hi Folks

I'm hoping to start not just a thread, but a movement, where people start to share information about availability of phantoms they no longer need, with a view towards donating them to LMIC settings.  So - this is the first 'thread' - and I'm asking you to contribute your thoughts on how we can maximise traffic on this site and, more importantly, maximise the number of phantoms that are upcycled. Thanks for your thoughts on this.  

Dear Derek,

This is an excellent initiative. Sharing information on unused #phantoms and facilitating their donation to #LMIC settings could significantly support capacity building and training.

Circulating this through networks such as the various ISMRM chapters and industry partners may increase engagement. A simple central registry (eg., via Google Forms) listing available phantoms and potential recipient institutions could also help streamline the process.

Happy to help disseminate this within the Indian Chapter networks.

Thank you!
