Synopsis

We present here a method to automatically regulate heat deposition during Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy to precisely control temperature evolution during the procedure. The method relies on real-time rapid volumetric thermometry using the Proton Resonance Frequency Shift technique and a regulation algorithm that adjusts every second the emitted power by the laser to force temperature to follow a predefined temperature-time profile.
