Signal-to-noise ratio evaluation of magnetic resonance images in the presence of an ultrasonic motor

Abstract Background Safe robot-assisted intervention using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guidance requires the precise control of assistive devices, and most currently available tools are rarely MRI-compatible. To obtain high precision, it is necessary to characterize and develop existing MRI-saf...
