Method and apparatus for temperature-controlled application of radio frequency power in magnetic resonance imaging

Temperature sensitive MRI measurements are used to monitor the effect of radio signals including the NMR signals themselves. In one embodiment, a closed loop MRI system maximizes acquisition speed without exceeding safety thresholds of tissue temperature by monitoring the tissue temperature using NM...

Zusammenfassung:Temperature sensitive MRI measurements are used to monitor the effect of radio signals including the NMR signals themselves. In one embodiment, a closed loop MRI system maximizes acquisition speed without exceeding safety thresholds of tissue temperature by monitoring the tissue temperature using NMR signals in real-time.
