cleanup date October 2011 ref improve date October 2011 An MRI robot is a medical robot capable of operating within a magnetic resonance imaging MRI scanner for the purpose of performing or assisting in image guided interventions IGI . IGI interventions are commonly performed manually by physicians operating instruments such as needle based on medical images, in most medical field and in the interventional radiology specialty. IGI robots help manipulating the instrument or provide guidance for image navigation. These have the potential to improve the performance of IGI because, unlike humans, robots are digital devices that may directly communicate with the digital imagers. MRI compatible To be MRI compatible a robot needs to safely operate and perform its function within the magnetic field of the MRI without deteriorating the image quality. But the development of MRI robots is a very challenging engineering task, because MRI scanners use magnetic fields of very high density 3 tesla unit teslas is now common , and most of the components commonly used in robotics may not be used in close proximity of the magnet http video.google.ca videoplay?docid 3911691380555981564&q MRI and Metal &ei Wl1ASI3hLIvCrwKRkb3WCA&hl en see Google video on MRI Safety .

Real time magnetic resonance imaging MRI refers to the continuous monitoring filming of moving objects in real time. Because MRI is based on time consuming scanning of k space MRI k space , real time MRI was possible only with low image quality or low temporal resolution. Using an iterative reconstruction algorithm these limitations have recently been removed a new method for real time MRI achieves a temporal resolution of 20 to 30 milliseconds for images with an in plane resolution of 1.5 to 2.0 mm. ref name Uecker2010a M Uecker, S Zhang, D Voit, A Karaus, KD Merboldt, Jens Frahm J Frahm 2010a Real time MRI at a resolution of 20 ms.
