The ''loopless antenna'' is an interventional MRI detector consisting of a tuned coaxial cable and an extended inner conductor or ''whip''. A limitation is the poor sensitivity afforded at, and immediately proximal to, its distal end, which is exacerbated by the extended whip length when the whip is

β¦ Synopsis
Abbreviations: LEDlight-enutttng diode. 311 = threr-dlmensional THE DEVELOPMENT AND application of MRI techniques for intraoperative guidance has followed the ongoing trend in interventional radiology to apply all imaging technoloLgy for reducing the invasiveness of surgical diagnosis and therapy. At the same time, the emergence of interventional MRI has paralleled the introduction of various image guidance methods to surgery. These techniques became available due to the rapid progress in introducing new imaging modalities in radiology combined with the continuously improving high performance computing technology.

The practicability of using Overhauser enhancement of saline in interventional MRI was investigated. Saline was used as a means of marking the path taken by a fluid-filled cavity, similar to that formed by a needle, catheter, or cannula during interventional MRI procedures. A prototype device was de
## Abstract To characterize gradient field nonuniformity and its effect on velocity encoding in phase contrast (PC) MRI, a generalized model that describes this phenomenon and enables the accurate reconstruction of velocities is presented. In addition to considerable geometric distortions, inhomoge
## Abstract Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is a powerful research tool, but since it requires high vacuum conditions, the wet materials and biological samples must undergo a complex preparation that limits the application of SEM on this kind of specimen and often causes the introduction of arti
