This investigation evaluated metallic surgical instruments for magnetic resonance (MR) safety in association with a 1.5-Tesla/64-MHz MR system. Seven different instruments (mallet, bone punch, curette, Weil-Blakesley ethmoid forceps, suction cannula, septum speculum, and Kocher-Langenbeck retractor;
A radiofrequency coil based on a solenoid design was developed and integrated with a novel device for MR-guided breast interventions using a circumferential approach. The transmit/receive tapered solenoid design conforms to the shape of the pendent breast, and provides open circumferential needle ac
## Abstract With the rapid growth of interventional MRI, radiofrequency (RF) heating at the tips of guidewires, catheters, and other wireβshaped devices has become an important safety issue. Previous studies have identified some of the variables that affect the relative magnitude of this heating bu
