Development and application of a structured preclinical protocol for MRI-guided endomyocardial biopsy: a multimodal imaging approach using a hybrid vessel phantom and porcine in vivo models
The developed preclinical testing protocol effectively evaluated key device characteristics (reliable visibility, handling, and accurate tissue sampling) of the MR-compatible EMB forceps, providing valuable insights in the early stages of in vivo trials.
