Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods of imaging a portion of a body vessel using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), methods of performing interventional medical treatment under MRI, interventional medical devices, such as wire guides, useful in performing treatment under MRI, and methods of making interventional medical devices. A method of imaging a portion of a body vessel of a patient using MRI includes advancing through a body vessel an end of a wire guide comprising a continuous metal core member and a continuous jacket disposed over the entire core member through a body vessel and scanning the portion of the patient that is positioned within an MRI scanner and that includes a portion of the body vessel within which the end of the wire guide is disposed. A secondary medical device, such as a catheter, can be disposed over the wire guide and manipulated in the method.

Abstract: Example medical systems for performing treatment under magnetic resonance imaging and related devices, kits, and methods are described. An example medical system includes a first medical device, a second medical device, and a marker. The first medical device is formed of a first material. The first material has a first magnetic susceptibility. The second medical device is formed of a second material. The second material has a second magnetic susceptibility. The marker is disposed on the second medical device and is formed of a third material. The third material has a third magnetic susceptibility that is different than the first magnetic susceptibility and the second magnetic susceptibility.
