Background: T thermometry is considered a straight method for the safety monitoring of patients with deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes against radiofrequency-induced heating during Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), requiring different sequences and methods.
Objective: This study aimed to compare two T thermometry methods and two low specific absorption rate (SAR) imaging sequences in terms of the output image quality.
Material And Methods: In this experimental study, a gel phantom was prepared, resembling the brain tissue properties with a copper wire inside.
Background: Patients with experienced stroke have suffered from long-term disability, especially in their distal upper extremities. Physiotherapy programs are considered a proper treatment to overcome the complications caused by stroke. The use of robots in physiotherapy is also considered a newfound procedure as an alternative to conventional methods.
