Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers advantages for guiding vascular procedures, enabling visualization of instruments and detailed vessel imaging. This technology could expand interventional capabilities beyond current X-ray fluoroscopy.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) possesses unique attributes beneficial for intravascular therapeutic procedure guidance.
  • Key advantages include high soft tissue contrast, arbitrary plane imaging, absence of ionizing radiation, and functional flow information.
  • Safe guidance necessitates clear visualization of instruments relative to vascular anatomy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and discuss the application of MRI for guiding intravascular therapeutic procedures.
  • To explore methods for enhancing instrument visibility within the MR environment.
  • To highlight the potential of MRI for advanced vascular interventions.

Main Methods:

  • Discussion of passive techniques (contrast agents, susceptibility artifacts) for instrument visualization.

  • Explanation of active techniques utilizing integrated hardware, such as radiofrequency (RF) coils.
  • Exploration of high-resolution vessel wall imaging using catheter-mounted RF coils.

    • Main Results:

    • Passive and active techniques enable visualization of catheters and guidewires during MRI-guided vascular interventions.
    • Catheter-mounted RF coils allow for high-resolution imaging of the vessel wall.
    • These capabilities facilitate the identification of plaque components.

    Conclusions:

    • MRI offers a radiation-free modality with superior soft tissue contrast for vascular interventions.
    • Advanced visualization techniques enhance instrument tracking and enable detailed plaque characterization.
    • MRI has the potential to broaden the scope of vascular interventions beyond current fluoroscopic guidance.
