Closed-Bore Interventional MRI: Percutaneous Biopsies and Ablations.
Review
Overview
abstract
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this article is to review clinical applications and technologic development of MRI-guided percutaneous interventions performed in closed-bore MRI scanners. CONCLUSION: Interventional MRI has rapidly adapted to the closed-bore environment. New tools are being developed to facilitate the use of MRI-guided procedures, and cost-effectiveness studies are exploring the economics of interventional MRI.
