    Abstract: An MRI image is generated base on a first MRI scan and a second MRI scan. Using corresponding first and second k-space grid data, at least one instance of subject movement during acquisition of scan line data as part of the first MRI scan or second MRI scan is identified. Motion sensor data is consulted to determine if each identified instance of subject movement was during the first MRI scan or the second MRI scan. Corrected k-space grid data is generated using the other k-space grid data on a scan line by scan line basis and a resulting MRI image is generated therefrom.

    Abstract: A therapeutic hyperthermia device and method for using the same includes a cooling blanket dimensioned to at least partially cover a human, a conduit coupled to the cooling blanket, and cooling liquid. Each of the cooling blanket, conduit, and cooling liquid have a negligible effect on a magnetic resonance (MR) image taken by an MRI device. The cooling liquid may have a spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) and a spin-spin relaxation time (T2), where either or both of T1 and T2 are less than 2 milliseconds in duration. The cooling liquid may be one of water with manganite chloride, and water with sodium chloride.
