Temperature Mapping During MR-Guided Cryoablation Using a FLORET UTE Sequence. [PDF]
Magn Reson MedABSTRACT Purpose To implement a three‐dimensional FLORET‐UTE sequence for rapid MR thermometry during cryoablation and to validate voxel‐wise temperature maps against fiber‐optic probes in ex vivo bovine liver. Methods A FLORET‐UTE trajectory (TE 50 μs, 1.6 mm isotropic, 18 s/volume) was executed on a 3 T scanner while dry‐ice cryoablation was applied ...
