To develop and evaluate a combined motion-assisted/gated MRHIFU heating strategy designed to accelerate the treatment procedure by reducing the required number of sonications to ablate a target volume in the pancreas. A planning method for combined motion-assisted/gated MRHIFU using 4D-MRI and motion characterization is introduced. Six healthy volunteers underwent 4D-MRI for target motion characterization on a 3.
