Comments on MR heating tests of critical implants.
MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI)-related heating for certain implants may be excessive, causing substantial patient injury. The determination of implant heating is particularly challenging because of the numerous variables that must be considered in order to properly identify both MRIand implant-related conditions that can impact the findings (1,2). Therefore, I applaud the recent commentary by...
متن کاملReal Time Measurement of Heating Near Metallic Implants Throughout a Phantom Using Phase-Shift MR Thermometry
H. Bassen, A. Kam, W. Kainz, G. Mendoza, H. Wang Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and Drug Administration, Rockville, MD, United States, Diagnostic Radiology Department, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, United States Introduction – Potentially dangerous heating occurs at the narrow tip of certain medical implants in patients being imaged by standard MRI systems [1, 2...
متن کاملComparison of state-of-the-art atlas-based bone segmentation approaches from brain MR images for MR-only radiation planning and PET/MR attenuation correction
Introduction: Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging has emerged as a valuable tool in radiation treatment (RT) planning as well as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging owing to its superior soft-tissue contrast. Due to the fact that there is no direct transformation from voxel intensity in MR images into electron density, itchr('39')s crucial to generate a pseudo-CT (Computed Tomography) image ...
متن کاملComplications of MR vaccination in Hamedan
Background: Complications of national program vaccination have great importance, because widespread use of vaccines and expanded age range of vaccinees increases the percentage of side effects. Present study was performed for evaluating the complications of national measles and rubella vaccination in Hamedan province. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was done from...
متن کاملSimultaneous radiofrequency (RF) heating and magnetic resonance (MR) thermal mapping using an intravascular MR imaging/RF heating system.
Previous studies have confirmed the possibility of using an intravascular MR imaging guidewire (MRIG) as a heating source to enhance vascular gene transfection/expression. This motivated us to develop a new intravascular system that can perform MR imaging, radiofrequncy (RF) heating, and MR temperature monitoring simultaneously in an MR scanner. To validate this concept, a series of mathematica...
