A technique for the visualization of interventional devices by use of transient, local magnetic field alterations and bSSFP sequences is presented. It allows the generation of distinct artifacts with controllable dimension. The instrument is visualized in the phase image obtained in the same scan as the undisturbed anatomical image. Localization is done by subsequent superposition.
