In MRI signal, phase is proportional to the local
resonance frequency and therefore directly reflects
magnetic field changes induced by local magnetic
susceptibility sources. Composed of hemosiderin,
cerebral microbleed can act as susceptibility sources
and generate local dipole magnetic field. Here, we
introduce a physically motivated fast 2D phase
processing technique including unwrapping and harmonic
filtering which yields the internal field. We
demonstrate its applicability and robustness on
multicenter 2D datasets acquired in standardized
clinical setting to discriminate cerebral microbleeds.
