Simple Summary Hyperthermia is a treatment for cancer patients, which consists of heating
the body to 43° C. The temperature during treatment is usually measured by placing …

Purpose Together with the development of MRI contrasts that are inherently small in their
magnitude, increased magnetic field accuracy is also required. Hence, mapping of the static …

Drug‐resistant focal epilepsy (DRFE), defined by failure of two antiepileptic drugs, affects
30% of epileptic patients. Epilepsy surgeries are alternative options for this population …

Transcranial MRI-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is a noninvasive thermal ablation
method approved for the treatment of essential tremor and tremor-dominant Parkinson's …

Proton resonance frequency (PRF) based MR thermometry is essential for focused
ultrasound (FUS) thermal ablation therapies. This work aims to enhance temporal resolution …

PRFS-based MR thermometry is inaccurate in tissues containing both fat and water, due to
the lack of temperature-induced frequency shift in fat protons. A geometric-model based …

Purpose Proton resonance frequency (PRF) thermometry encodes information in the phase
of MRI signals. A multiplicative factor converts phase changes into temperature changes …

MRI-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy has proved an effective method for the
treatment of Essential Tremor. Precise alignment of the focus to the target in the thalamus is …

MRI was recognized for its potential use as a noninvasive in vivo thermometer 30 years ago.
Today, the most popular application of MR thermometry is the guidance of thermal therapies …
