Intracardiac MR imaging (ICMRI) guiding‐sheath with amplified expandable‐tip imaging and MR‐tracking for navigation and arrythmia ablation monitoring: Swine testing at 1.5 and 3T

Develop a deflectable intracardiac MR imaging (ICMRI) guiding‐sheath to accelerate imaging during MR‐guided electrophysiological (EP) interventions for radiofrequency (500 kHz) ablation (RFA) of arrythmia. Requirements include imaging at three to… Click to show full abstract

Develop a deflectable intracardiac MR imaging (ICMRI) guiding‐sheath to accelerate imaging during MR‐guided electrophysiological (EP) interventions for radiofrequency (500 kHz) ablation (RFA) of arrythmia. Requirements include imaging at three to five times surface‐coil SNR in cardiac chambers, vascular insertion, steerable‐active‐navigation into cardiac chambers, operation with ablation catheters, and safe levels of MR‐induced heating.
