Purpose: Patients who have medical metallic implants, e.g. orthopaedic implants and pacemakers, often cannot undergo an MRI exam. One of the largest risks is tissue heating due to the radio frequency (RF) fields. The RF safety assessment of implants is computationally demanding. ...
In this paper, we present an efficient dedicated electrical properties tomography (EPT) algorithm (called first-order current density EPT ) that exploits the particular radio frequency field structure, which is present in the midplane of a birdcage coil, to reconstruct conductivi ...
In this paper, we present an Electrical Properties Tomography (EPT) methodology based on integral (Green's tensor) representations for the electromagnetic field. Inhomogeneous tissue profiles can easily be incorporated in such an approach and the reconstruction method is less sen ...
