Technical note: System uncertainty on four‐ and eight‐channel parallel RF transmission for safe MRI of deep brain stimulation devices
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Parallel radiofrequency transmission (pTx) remains a promising technology for addressing high-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) challenges, particularly regarding the safety of patients with implanted deep brain stimulation (DBS) devices. Radiofrequency (RF) shim optimization methods utilizing pTx technology have shown the potential to minimize induced RF heating effects at the electrode tips of DBS devices at 3 T.
