Abstract: Real-time Magnetic Resonance (MR) thermometry provides continuous temperature mapping inside the human body and is therefore a promising tool to monitor and control interventional therapies based on thermal ablation. Temperature information must be mapped to a reference position of observed organs in order to allow thermal dose computation, as the history of temperature is required for each pixel. While purely optical-flow-based realignment may lead to temperature map computation errors for the case of local or global intensity changes, Principal Component Analysis based realignment results in accurately registered temperature maps.
