A device is presented including a medical device adapted to be inserted in
an anatomy. The medical device has many target markers. A magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) system will not detect or will disregard the
medical device as noise without information obtained on the plurality of
target markers prior to insertion of the medical device into the anatomy.
Also presented a method including inserting a medical device into an
anatomy. The medical device has many target markers. Scanning a magnetic
resonance image (MRI) of the anatomy. Processing the scanned image by a
MRI processor connected to a memory. Determining a location and
orientation of the medical device in relation to the anatomy based on the
target markers. And displaying a precise image of the medical device
within the anatomy. The medical device is not detectable or disregardable
as noise for MRI systems.
