## Abstract The field of MR imaging has grown from diagnosis via morphologic imaging to more sophisticated diagnosis via both physiologic and morphologic imaging and finally to the guidance and control of interventions. A wide variety of interventional procedures from open brain surgeries to noninv

The accurate visualization of interventional devices is crucial for the safety and effectiveness of MRI-guided interventional procedures. In this paper, we introduce an improvement to the visualization of active devices. The key component is a fast, robust method (''CurveFind'') that reconstructs th

The goal of this research is to register real-time interventional magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) slice images with a previously obtained high-resolution MRI image volume, which in turn can be registered with functional images such as those from SPECT. The immediate application is in iMRI-guided t

## Abstract Percutaneous MR‐guided interventions with needles require fast pulse sequences to image the needle trajectory with minimal susceptibility artifacts. Spin‐echo pulse sequences are well suited for reducing artifact size; however, even with single‐shot turbo spin‐echo techniques, such as r
