Detection of RF power deposition is important in MRI SAR analysis, and in RF safety of implanted leads. We demonstrate thermo-acoustic ultrasound as a non-invasive means to detect rapid RF power deposition at MRI frequencies. Results are shown using CW modulation methods for a exposed lead and stripline RF coil.
