| Research Abstract |
MR temperature measurement using the water proton chemical shift technique represents a promising method for temperature monitoring in vivo. The novel diffuse- projection ®ber is clearly visualized in different optical penetrations upon MR temperature measurement. We detected the serious problem of carbonization around the laser ®ber tip and during LITT, and herein described a combination of two methodologies that regulated tempera- ture during LITT using MR temperature monitoring to reduce this risk of carbonization: the combined use of a diffuse-projection ®ber and the intermittent irradiation method. Temperature measurement by MR not only evaluates the temperature pro®les obtained by different ®ber systems, but also determines the appropriate irradia- tion method for the treatment of intracranial lesions.
