摘要: The water proton resonance frequency (PRF) is temperature dependent and can thus be used for magnetic (MR) thermometry. Since lipid frequencies do not depend on temperature, fat suppression essential PRF-based mapping. efficacy of echo-shifted (TE > TR) gradient-echo imaging with spectral-spatial excitation demonstrated, resulting in accurate rapid, lipid-suppressed, MR method was validated phantoms, fatty duck liver, rat thigh, demonstrating improvements both the speed precision Heating a thigh focused ultrasound monitored vivo an accuracy 0.37°C time resolution 438 msec.
