Changes in magnetic resonance (MR) signals during interstitial microwave heating are reported, and correlated with simultaneously acquired temperature readings from three fiber-optic probes implanted in a polyacrylamide gel phantom. The heating by a MR-compatible microwave antenna did not interfere with simultaneous MR image data acquisition. MR phase-difference images were obtained using a fast two-dimensional-gradient echo sequence. From these images the temperature-sensitive resonant frequency of the1H nuclei was found to decrease approximately by 0.008 ppm/°C. The method and results presented here demonstrate that noninvasive MR-temperature imaging can be performed simultaneously with interstitial microwave thermal treatment. |
