The effect of errors in the thermal properties (thermal
conductivity and power density) in the previously
described model predictive filtering (MPF) algorithm for
reconstruction of magnetic resonance temperature change
maps is investigated. Simulations and focused ultrasound
heatings in ex-vivo pork muscle are performed, using a
3D segmented EPI pulse sequence. Effects of k-space
reduction factor (ranging from 4 to 12) and temperature
rise rates (ranging from 0.28 to 0.75 C/s) on the
temperature measurement accuracy are also investigated.
Both simulations and experiments show that the accuracy
decreases with increasing R and increasing temperature
rise rates.
