Our results indicate that silent MR catheter tracking capabilities are identical to conventional catheter tracking. The achieved acoustic noise reduction comes at no penalty in terms of tracking quality or temporal resolution, improves comfort and safety, and can overcome the need for MR-compatible communication equipment and background noise suppression during the actual interventional procedure.
