† Supplied a 95% confidence interval of the MR temperature. * Used T1 instead of PRFS for calculating MR temperature maps. ^ Uses a 0.2 T instead of a 1.5 T MRI. ~ Standard error instead of SD. Body part imaged: E = extremities, P = pelvis. Metrics that are within our recommended minimum are shaded in green (spatial and temporal resolutions of 125 mm3 and 20 s, respectively).
