摘要
Understanding the appearance of thin metallic structures in magnetic resonance imaging is important for evaluating the potential role of MRI in guiding and monitoring percutaneous interventions, As most MR compatible instruments are made from materials with a susceptibility different from water, their visibility is enhanced beyond what is expected on the grounds of displaced water alone. Unfortunately, this artifactually enhanced visibility is not constant, but instead depends on a variety of factors. This article presents computer simulations of the image distortion resulting from magnetic susceptibility differences between a needle and the surrounding tissue. The simulations show not only an artifact size that is dependent on needle composition, orientation, and pulse sequence, but also a corresponding shift of the artifact center away from the actual center of the needle. These effects place limits on the accuracy of MRI-guided needle tip placement.
