MRI-guided prostate biopsy using surgical navigation software: device validation and preliminary experience
نویسندگان
چکیده
Magnetic Resonance (MR) Image-guided prostate biopsy in a 0.5-T open scanner is described, validated in phantom studies, and employed in two patients. The needles are guided by fast gradient recall and T2-weighted fast spin echo images. Surgical navigation software provided T2-weighted images that were critical in targeting the peripheral zone and the tumor. MR imaging can be used to guide prostate biopsy.

MR imaging-guided prostate biopsy with surgical navigation software: device validation and feasibility.
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging--guided prostate biopsy in a 0.5-T open imager is described, validated in phantom studies, and performed in two patients. The needles are guided by using fast gradient-recalled echo and T2-weighted fast spin-echo images. Surgical navigation software provided T2-weighted images critical to targeting the peripheral zone and the tumor. MR imaging can be used to guid...
متن کاملA networked modular hardware and software system for MRI-guided robotic prostate interventions
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides high resolution multi-parametric imaging, large soft tissue contrast, and interactive image updates making it an ideal modality for diagnosing prostate cancer and guiding surgical tools. Despite a substantial armamentarium of apparatuses and systems has been developed to assist surgical diagnosis and therapy for MRI-guided procedures over last decade, t...
متن کاملDirect magnetic resonance imaging-guided biopsy of the prostate: lessons learned in establishing a regional referral center
MRI-targeted biopsy of the prostate appears to have the potential to reduce the high rates of underdiagnosis and overdiagnosis associated with the current diagnostic standard of transrectal ultrasound guided systematic biopsy. Direct or "in bore" MRI-guided biopsy is one of the three methods for MRI-targeted core needle sampling of suspicious, generally Pi-RADS 4 or 5, foci within the prostate,...
متن کاملDosimetric and Radiobiological Evaluation of Multiparametric MRI-guided Dose Painting in radiotherapy of Prostate Cancer
Introduction: Radiotherapy is one of the treatment options for locally advanced prostate cancer, however with standard radiation doses it is not always very effective. One of the strategies to improve the efficiency of radiotherapy is increasing the dose. In this study to increase tumor local control rates a new radiotherapy method, known as dose painting (DP) was investigated....
متن کاملSoftware / Hardware Integration for MRI-guided Robotic Prostate Intervention using Open IGT Link
We propose a software and hardware integration strategy for MRI-guided robotic prostate intervention using an open network communication protocol. In the MRI-guided robotic intervention, the robot, navigation software and MRI scanner communicate one to another via Ethernet to exchange various data e.g. robot position, commands and MR images. Since the components were developed in the different ...
