A magnetic resonance (MR) method for measuring the deformation of the brain during angular acceleration was validated in a simple model system. Experimentally-derived shear strain patterns in a cylindrical gel “phantom” under angular acceleration were compared to analogous strain fields predicted by finite element simulation.
