Popis: Because of its superior soft tissue contrast, MRI has become the imaging method of choice for the development of many interventional procedures. Such procedures, being developed at UCLA, include interventional therapies involving focal lesion destruction using laser, RF heating and ultrasound; MRI-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology; MRI-compatible deeply-embeded electrodes for accurate physiological monitoring of brain activity; among others.
