In this document, a file format for the standardized storage of MPI and magnetic particle spectroscopy (MPS) data is introduced. The aim of the Magnetic Particle Imaging Data Format (MDF) is to provide a coherent way of exchanging MPI and MPS data acquired with different devices worldwide. The focus of the MDF is on sequence parameters, measurement data, calibration data, and reconstruction data. The format is based on the hierarchical document format in version 5 (HDF5). This document discusses the MDF version 2.1.0, which is not backward compatible with version 1.x.y.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1602.06072v7","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/1602.06072v7.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"mdf-magnetic-particle-imaging-data-format","repo_url":"https://github.com/MagneticParticleImaging/MDF","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
