MRI image guided intervention is now gradually spreading with the precise/plenty surgical information acquired from intra-operative MR images, however, surgeon encounters difficulties to obtain accurate "registration" between navigation results and operating devices, and it is almost impossible to perform operation inside the MRI scanner because of its narrow gantry space. To solve this problem, the introduction of novel technologies should be required for precise/safe surgical operations under MRI. In this key-note speech, we focus on our recent research works including MR image guided surgical robotics and the augmented reality system. Both are MR safe or MR conditional systems for use under the strong magnetic field.
