CONCLUSION: FLORET-UTE enables quantitative 3-D MR thermometry of frozen tissue with < 20 s temporal resolution and < 2°C accuracy, overcoming the speed limitations of earlier UTE methods. The technique is a promising candidate for real-time MR-guided cryoablation and warrants in vivo evaluation.

Microwave ablation (MWA) of hepatic tumors benefits from MR thermometry, enabling real-time temperature monitoring to guide treatment and protect healthy tissue. However, MR thermometry in the abdomen is challenging due to respiratory and intestinal motion. This study evaluates two advanced 3D imaging sequences, Stack-of-Stars (Stars) and Stack-of-Spirals (Spirals), for precise MWA thermometry in phantom and…
