    Notes: Summary SPECT scanning with TI-201 and Tc-99m offers a unique, inexpensive functional imaging modality to combine with CT stereotactic craniotomy for guiding resection of necrosis and/or tumour in patients treated with escalated doses of radiation (〉6000 cGy) by either brachytherapy or radiosurgery. Thirty-two cases were analyzed, with a detailed description of the imaging and operative techniques.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) eignet sich als nichtinvasives Verfahren mit hoher Auflösung besonders gut zur Bildgebung für minimal invasive, chirurgische oder interventionelle Eingriffe. Eine wesentliche Voraussetzung ist jedoch die Entwicklung offener MR-Systeme. Das hier beschriebene, offene MR-System mit supraleitendem 0,5-T-Magneten (SIGNA SP,GE) erlaubt den Zugang zum Patienten auch während der Bildaquisition und die interaktive Kontrolle der Bildebene durch den Benutzer. Die kontinuierliche Bildunterstützung ermöglicht neue Techniken zur Führung interventioneller oder chirurgischer Eingriffe, eine genauere Lokalisation von Instrumenten und die unmittelbare Verlaufskontrolle nahezu in Echtzeit. Klinische Anwendungen dieser Technologie werden dargestellt. Durch schnelle Rechentechniken für das Bildmanagement und intraoperative Bildgebung, ermöglicht das offene MR-System die Entwicklung neuer, besonders effizienter interventioneller und minimal invasiv chirurgischer Verfahren.
    Notes: Purpose: To develop a superconducting magnetic resonance (MR) imager that provides direct access to the patient and permits interactive MR-guided interventional procedures. Materials and methods: A 0.5-T superconducting magnet that allows a region of vertical access to the patient was designed and constructed. This magnet was integrated with newly designed shielded gradient coils, flexible surface coils, nonmagnetic displays, position-monitoring probes and device-tracking instrumentation. Results: The magnet homogeneity was 12.3 ppm or better, and the gradient field was linear to within 1 % over an imaging region of 30 cm in diameter. The signal-to-noise ratio was 10 % higher than in a comparable 0.5-T superconducting imager. Images were obtained in several anatomic regions with use of routine pulse sequences. Interactive image plane selection and near real-time imaging, with use of fast gradient-recalled echo sequences were demonstrated at a rate of one image every 1.5 s. More than 240 procedures (including open brain surgery) have been successfully performed within this environment. Conclusions: MR-guided interventional and surgical procedures can be performed with full patient access using an open-configuration, superconducting MR magnet with near real-time imaging and interactive image plane control.
