This is the third special issue of the Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging dedicated to
the rapidly developing field of interventional MRI. A comparison with the 1998 and …

Interventional MRI is in its early stages of development. Nevertheless, the design of new
interventional MRI scanners that allow maximum direct access to the patient combined with …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a cutting edge imaging modality in detecting diseases
and pathologic tissue. The superior soft tissue contrast in MRI allows better definition of the …

The expansive technological developments that occurred over the past decades have
clearly moved the field of Interventional MRI beyond the arena of the “proof of concept” to a …

Steadfast progress has been made from biopsy to surgery with interventional MRI (iMRI).
Such image‐guided interventions require specialized instrumentation due to the unusual …

As interesting as the notion of MR-guided biopsy is, in many ways it is really only the first
step in the field of in-terventional MR imaging that has the potential to include many other …

Abstract Background: Magnetic resonance (MR)-guided biopsies are generally regarded as
complex interventions. We implemented interventional MR (IMR) with the resources …

Biopsy has become a cornerstone of modern medicine and most modern biopsies are
performed percutaneously using image guidance, typically computed tomography or …
