Abstract

MR imaging has been used to perform imaging guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and meanwhile can also be used precisely to measure tissue temperature in theory. But in practice, the temperature environment and target are complex. Therefore, it is difficult to measure targeted temperature just by simply using the theory of numerical calculation based on MR image information. In this presentation, we presented new MR temperature measurement, based on imaging informatics, to measure the targeted tissue temperature in MR imaging guided HIFU therapeutic procedure. By heating up the water phantom experiments under HIFU, the new algorithm gives a satisfactory result compared with existing algorithm. Based on experimental data, we can see the accuracy increase 37.5% from 0.4048℃ up to 0.2530℃ when we choose new algorithms.
