Abstract
The development of an open-configured MR-imaging system opens new pers pectives in minimal invasive surgery. The combination of laparoscopy a nd real-time MR imaging allows the guidance of diagnostic intervention s as well as interstitial therapies of parenchymal organs. In the near future, tumor diagnosis, therapy and follow-up can be done using the same technique.
