Summary

Several technological challenges exist to apply Magnetic Resonance guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MRgHIFU) for treatment of liver or kidney in particular challenges related to the motion of these organs. This study tests a new software to improve thermometry accuracy in mobile organs in patients with liver or kidney tumors. In the same time, the trajectory of the target in 3D is analyzed.

Conditions

  • Liver Tumors
  • Kidney Carcinoma

Interventions

DEVICE

MRI

Patients will have a regular hepatic or kidney MRI investigation; we will add our sequences on their initial protocol. At first, one thermometry sequence is performed before angular correction is achieved with the following parameters: FOV=300 mm, matrix=96\*96, TE/TR=18/72 ms, 67 lines/TR, Sense factor=1.4, 5 slices (4 coronal et 1 sagittal), 30° Flip angle. In order to determine the main direction of motion, a set of 200 images are acquired during motion with two interleaved orthogonal slices (one coronal and one sagittal) centered on the region of interest, with the read out direction aligned with the head-feet direction. True-fisp images are acquired during 40 seconds with the following parameters: FOV=400 mm, matrix=128\*109, TE/TR=1.2/2.43 ms, 60° flip angle, and 6 mm slice thickness. Then the tested software proposes an angular correction to minimize out of plane motion. For each set of orientations, MR thermometry is performed
