Liver MR-Guided Intervention Phantom System

Introduction

Train and simulate MR-guided liver interventions with high anatomical fidelity. The system replicates human liver morphology and vasculature, embedded within a realistic abdominal phantom. Designed for hands-on procedural training in a controlled, repeatable environment, it supports integration with MR-compatible instruments and imaging sequences.

Skills Developed

  • MR-guided percutaneous interventions
    Practice needle placement, trajectory planning, and tool manipulation under MR guidance using interactive imaging protocols.

  • Targeted lesion ablation simulation
    Simulate radiofrequency, microwave, or laser ablation of liver lesions with thermal diffusion feedback visible on MR images.

  • Hepatic vasculature navigation
    Develop precision in avoiding critical vascular structures during intervention, supported by accurate vessel mapping.

  • Lesion segmentation and targeting
    Train in identifying, segmenting, and targeting lesions with varying echotexture and depth, enhancing MR-visual decision-making.
