Integrated MRI and OCT system and dedicated workflow for planning, online guiding and monitoring of interventions using MRI in combination with OCT

摘要

A system and method for an integrated imaging system with magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI") and optical coherence tomography ("OCT"). The system includes an MR scanner and OCT device configured to generate images. The system is further operative to assist a clinician in intravascular interventions, endoluminal interventions, biopsies and other guiding or therapy monitoring processes utilizing the imaging of MR and OCT.
