Abstract	PURPOSE: To develop a digital reference object (DRO) toolkit to generate realistic breast DCE-MRI data for quantitative assessment of image reconstruction and data analysis methods. METHODS: B RESULTS: v CONCLUSION: We have developed a DRO toolkit that includes realistic morphology of tumor lesions along with the expected pharmacokinetic parameter ranges. This simulation framework can generate many images for quantitative assessment of DCE-MRI reconstruction and analysis methods.
