Active Adaptive Detuning Systems To
Improve Safety of Interventional
Devices
Description of Invention: The
invention offered for licensing and
commercial development is in the field
of Interventional Magnetic Resonance
Imaging (‘‘iMRI’’). More specifically the
invention discloses interventional
devices in which the heat generated at
the device during the imaging process
can be controlled to not exceed
acceptable levels.
Active MRI compatible intravascular
devices contain RF antenna so that they
are visible under MRI. However, these
metallic structures may heat up
significantly during interventional MRI
procedures due to eddy current
formation over the conductive
transmission lines. The electrical field
coupling between interventional devices
and RF transmission coils strongly
depend on the device position and
orientation within the bore and
insertion length of the device. Currently,
conventional detuning circuit is used to
decouple the conductive intravascular
device during RF transmission phase of
the MRI by activating the circuit with a
PIN diode. However, conventional
passive techniques do not adapt for each
possible orientation or insertion length
of the device. The current invention
provides for a new active detuning
system that adapts its circuit component
to limit heating for every possible
orientation and insertion length. The
system reads out the received current
signal value during RF transmission
phase and changes the decoupling
capacitor value by using varactor and
integrated circuit components to reach
new resonant condition (very high
impedance).
Applications:
• Interventional cardiology
• MRI guided surgery
Advantages: The device may
fundamentally enable any ‘‘active’’ MRI
catheter device (independent of the
orientation and insertion length of the
device) to be safe during real-time MRI
guided interventional procedures.
Development Status: In development.
Prototype is being built.
