Thermal Magnetic Resonance makes use of the physics of radio frequency waves applied at ultrahigh field-MRI. To achieve precise energy focal point formation, accurate thermal dose control and safety management, the transmitted RF signal amplitude and phase need to be supervised and regulated in real-time. In this work, a multi-channel power and phase supervision module was developed, evaluated and applied as an integral part of the Thermal MR hardware system. Preliminary experiments were conducted to demonstrate that the proposed module is suitable and essential for RF heating using a hybrid Thermal MR approach.
