    A Platform Integrating Acquisition, Reconstruction, Visualization, and Manipulator Control Modules for MRI-Guided Interventions
    (SPRINGER, 2019-01-01) Garcia, Jose D. Velazco; Navkar V, Nikhil; Gui, Dawei; Morales, Cristina M.; Christoforou, Eftychios G.; Ozcan, Alpay; Abinahed, Julien; Al-Ansari, Abdulla; Webb, Andrew; Seimenis, Ioannis; Tsekos V, Nikolaos
    This work presents a platform that integrates a customized MRI data acquisition scheme with reconstruction and three-dimensional (3D) visualization modules along with a module for controlling an MRI-compatible robotic device to facilitate the performance of robot-assisted, MRI-guided interventional procedures. Using dynamically-acquired MRI data, the computational framework of the platform generates and updates a 3D model representing the area of the procedure (AoP). To image structures of interest in the AoP that do not reside inside the same or parallel slices, the MRI acquisition scheme was modified to collect a multi-slice set of intraoblique to each other slices
