Predicting ablation zones with multislice volumetric 2-D magnetic resonance thermal imaging

Background High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) serves as a noninvasive stereotactic system for the ablation of brain metastases; however, treatments are limited to simple geometries and energy delivery is limited by the high acoustic attenuation of the calvarium. Minimally-invasive magnetic res...
