This study introduces an improved hybrid magnetic resonance (MR)/X-ray (XMR) guidance system for cardiovascular procedures. The enhanced system offers real-time imaging and mapping, potentially reducing procedure time and radiation dose.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Cardiovascular Interventions
  • Image Registration

Background:

  • Hybrid magnetic resonance (MR)/X-ray (XMR) suites offer advanced imaging for cardiovascular procedures.
  • Previous optical tracking techniques registered MR and X-ray images in XMR configurations.
  • Improvements were needed for calibration, real-time guidance, and data analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To enhance an optical tracking-based registration technique for hybrid MR/X-ray (XMR) systems.
  • To enable real-time guidance during cardiovascular catheterizations.
  • To facilitate off-line analysis for mapping cardiac electrical data to patient anatomy.

Main Methods:

  • Developed improved calibration using dedicated optical trackers and a calibration object for single-step calibration.

  • Implemented an X-ray distortion model for accurate image correction across various c-arm angles.
  • Integrated real-time display of live X-ray with registered MR anatomy and catheter localization within MR data.

    • Main Results:

    • Successfully applied the registration technique in 13 cardiovascular catheterization procedures.
    • Utilized the system for real-time guidance in ten radiofrequency ablations and one aortic stent implantation.
    • Demonstrated off-line mapping of cardiac electrical data to patient anatomy using registered images from electrophysiology studies.

    Conclusions:

    • The enhanced real-time XMR guidance system shows significant value in complex interventional and electrophysiological procedures.
    • The system has the potential to reduce procedure duration and radiation exposure for patients.
    • Mapping electrical data to patient-specific anatomy improves visualization and supports cardiac electromechanical modeling.
