Sagittal and axial images were equally important in defining the extent of the lesions. Comparison with available contrast-enhanced CT scans showed that MR was more definitive in the early demonst...
متن کاملMR Compatibility of Mechatronic Devices: Design Criteria
Criteria to design MR (Magnetic Resonance) compatible mechatronic devices, e.g., surgical robots, are discussed. Some of critical interactions between MRI and mechatronic devices are discussed. Experimental results of the effects from several passive and active mechanical elements are demonstrated. Some passive elements, e.g., ball screw and linear guide have point contacts therefore, they are ...
