Feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging-guided cardiac catheterization, angioplasty, and stenting in a commercial wide-bore 0.55T scanner

Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
: Background: Low-field (0.55T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may allow MRI-guided interventions using available catheterization equipment, as radiofrequency-induced heating of interventional devices is reduced at low field. The purpose of this study
