Abstract
In this paper measurements of temperature increase of three different hip replace- ments during MRI were carried out. The hip replacements were embedded in an agar phantom which mimics dielectric properties of muscle tissue and were placed into a MRI system with the static magnetic field intensity of B0 = 1.5 T. The MRI of the samples took in total 20 minutes. Thermograms of the hip replacements were taken with a thermographic camera in two different time instances.
