A phase imaging technique is proposed to map out and quantify gradient nonlinearities of small-sized insertable gradient coils, assuming the whole-body system gradients are highly linear in the domain of interest. The theory is developed and simple equations are derived to allow quantification. It is applied to a 4-loop 18-cm diameter cylindrical gradient coil of optimal design. Experimental gradient nonlinearity maps are obtained for different fields of view. Gradient non-linearities are quantified locally and in regions of interest, showing close agreement with model data.
