High-"eld, high-speed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can generate high levels of sound within and around the scanner. The process that produces the gradient magnetic "eld is the primary cause of this noise. With the push to greater background magnetic "eld strength and gradient "eld switching spee

## Abstract A technique for transperineal highβdoseβrate (HDR) prostate brachytherapy and needle biopsy in a standard 1.5 T MRI scanner is demonstrated. In each of eight procedures (in four patients with intermediate to high risk localized prostate cancer), four MRIβguided transperineal prostate bi
A practical method for noise reduction is proposed and is applied to the interior noise problem of a vehicle passenger compartment. The proposed method is based upon the structural}acoustic response model, in which the interior pressure is explicitly described in terms of the modal parameters and st
First-pass contrast-enhanced myocardial perfusion MRI in rodents has so far not been possible due to the temporal and spatial resolution requirements. We developed a new first-pass perfusion MR method for rodent imaging on a clinical 3.0-T scanner (Philips Healthcare, Best, The Netherlands) that emp
