Model Predictive Filtering MR Temperature Imaging for Laser‐Induced Interstitial Thermotherapy
ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate the use of the Model Predictive Filtering (MPF) method to improve temporal resolution of magnetic resonance temperature imaging (MRTI) for monitoring laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) ablations. Methods Using a Green's function method for solving differential equations, a treatment‐specific power matrix Q was ...
