Abstract

The conventional implementations of proton resonance frequency shift (PRFS) magnetic resonance thermometry (MRT) require the subtraction of single or multiple temporal references, a motion sensitive critical feature. A pilot study was conducted here to investigate the clinical feasibility of near-harmonic two-dimensional (2D) referenceless PRFS MRT, using patient data from MR-guided laser ablation of liver malignancies.
