MRI active guidewire with an embedded temperature probe and providing a distinct tip signal to enhance clinical safety

BACKGROUND: The field of interventional cardiovascular MRI is hampered by the unavailability of active guidewires that are both safe and conspicuous. Heating of conductive guidewires is difficult to predict in vivo and disruptive to measure using external probes. We describe a clinical-grade 0.035”...
