MR‐guided core biopsy with MR fluoroscopy using a short, wide‐bore 1.5‐Tesla scanner: Feasibility and initial results

Abstract

Findings of this study demonstrate that MR fluoroscopy for biopsy guidance in a short, wide-bore 1.5T scanner is feasible. This scanner combines the patient access advantages of an open-bore system with the superior image quality and speed of a high-field scanner. In our series, the HASTE sequence was best suited for MR-guidance of biopsies.
