摘要 |
The invention relates to a device for magnetic resonance imaging of a body (7), wherein the device (1) is arranged to a) generate a series of MR echo signals (20) by subjecting at least a portion of the body (7) to an MR imaging sequence comprising RF pulses and switched magnetic field gradients, b) acquire the MR echo signals for reconstructing an MR image (21) therefrom, c) calculate a susceptibility gradient map (22) from the MR echo signals or from the MR image (21), the susceptibility gradient map (22) indicating local susceptibility induced magnetic field gradients, d) determine the position of an interventional instrument (16) having paramagnetic or ferromagnetic properties from the susceptibility gradient map (22).
