Abstract
Ultrasound and MRI are complementary imaging modalities. US imaging provides high temporal resolution and direct visualization of acoustic obstacles, while MRI provides excellent tissue contrast and a confirmed method for near real time thermometry. Overall, the expected added value of combining these two modalities would consist of more complete description of the investigated anatomy, a more accurate targeting, efficient motion tracking, and reliable immediate assessment of the therapeutic results. The aim of the present work is to set-up an integrated environment for simultaneously ultrasound and MR image acquisition, satisfying clinical standards, and to evaluate the feasibility of performing hybrid imaging. A study on healthy volunteers is presented here with simultaneous 4DMRI/dynamic 2D ultrasound.
