Cube
|
|
 |
IDEAL
|
Cube is a 3D isotropic imaging technique with sub-millimeter spatial resolution
and excellent contrast to help visualize even diminutive lesions. 3D data
from a single scan can be quickly and easily reconstructed into any plane
with the same high resolution of the native plane.
|
|
IDEAL provides consistent, robust fat and water separation every time, also in difficult to scan anatomies. Four different contrasts: water only, fat only, in-phase, out-of-phase are generated from a single acquisition, to help provide confident diagnoses. An IDEAL upgrade includes upgrade of VIBRANT to VIBRANT-Flex and LAVA to LAVA-Flex.

SWAN |
|
 |
3D Merge |
This multi-echo 3D imaging technique
helps visualize and clearly delineate small vessels and micro bleeds, large
vascular structures, and iron or calcium deposits in the brain. SWAN generates
more than twice SNR compared to a conventional T2*, producing excellent
images and allowing high spatial resolution.
|
|
3D Multiple Echo Recombined Gradient
Echo (MERGE) uses multiple echoes to generate high-resolution images of
the C-spine with excellent gray-white matter differentiation. By combining
early echoes with high SNR and late echoes with improved contrast, the result
is improved cord contrast within the spinal column.

PROPELLER 2.0
|
|
 |
BrainWave Fusion |
PROPELLER 2.0 corrects for patient motion and enhance tissue contrast without
compromising image resolution or prolonging scan time – helping clearly
visualize even small or subtle lesions also in uncooperative patients or
difficult to image anatomy.
|
|
BrainWave Fusion provides the ability to fuse high-resolution anatomical
images with fMRI activation maps and white matter tractography. The application
supports evaluation of the spatial relationship between eloquent cortex,
brain connectivity, and underlying anatomy and pathology.
|
| |
|
|
 |
3D COSMIC |
|
 |
BrainWave PA |
3D COSMIC generates optimized grey/white matter contrast in the spine, helping
visualize nerve roots and inter-vertebral disks, while maintaining soft-tissue
contrast.
|
|
BrainWave PA is a post-processing package for fMRI datasets acquired with
BrainWave RT. Raw data can be reviewed, edited and visualized as activation
maps co-registered with high-resolution 3D anatomic data set.
|
|
|
|
 |
BrainWave RT |
|
 |
FiberTrak |
BrainWave RT is a powerful real-time fMRI data acquisition package. It consists
of an EPI sequence with synchronized paradigm delivery and integrated quality
control. The BOLD activation data is displayed in real time with the image
quality indicators. Intuitive user interface makes it simple for a single
technologist to manage the acquisition, paradigm delivery and reconstruction
process.
|
|
The FiberTrak option adds color FA maps, color eigenvector maps, and 3D
tractography, a white matter fibers trajectories projection co-registered
with high definition 3D anatomies data set capabilities to the standard
Functool DTI.
|
| |
|
|
 |
Diffusion Tensor Imaging |
|
 |
PROBE-STEAM Spectroscopy |
DTI is a technique used in brain neuro applications for white matter tract
visualizations. Post-processing tools such as Functool and FiberTrak (optional)
can be applied to the DTI data set to visualize fractional anisotropy maps,
eigenvectors and 3D tractography. |
|
PROBE - STimulated Echo Acquisition Mode acquires a stimulated echo from
the localized volume, providing more accurate voxel localization. Since
echo times available with STEAM CSI can be shorter, it is better suited
than PRESS for chemical species that have shorter T2.
|
| |
|
|
 |
PROBE-PRESS Spectroscopy |
|
 |
PROBE-3D CSI |
PROBE - PRESS single voxel spectroscopy allows non-invasive evaluation of
the relative concentrations of in-vivo metabolites. Volume-localized, water-suppressed
H1 spectra are acquired and displayed in a single-voxel mode. The package
includes acquisition set-up, graphic prescription of spectroscopic volumes
and automatic reconstruction.
|
|
This add 3D multi-voxel acquisitions, extending the PROBE-2D CSI capabilities
(PROBE 2D CSI is mandatory).
|
| |
|
|
 |
PROBE-2D CSI |
|
|
|
This extends the PROBE-PRESS capabilities with simultaneous multi-voxel
in-plane acquisitions. Post- processing, including the generation of metabolite
maps, is automatically generated with the functool Performance package.

Inhance
|
|
 |
TRICKS
|
The new GE suite of NCE MRA applications is robust, fast and easy to use.
Inhance Inflow IR, Inhance 3D Velocity and Inhance 2D Inflow sequences deliver
consistent, reproducible MRA data even in difficult-to-scan anatomies, which can result in fewer rescans and a more confident differential diagnoses.
|
|
TRICKS uses an innovative time resolved k-space filling, sophisticated data
reconstruction and parallel acceleration techniques to allow increased temporal
resolution without sacrificing SNR or spatial resolution. TRICKS eliminates
the need for test injections of contrast or triggering. The acquired data
includes multiphase images of the entire arterial and venous filling, providing
high-resolution information about flow dynamics and allowing reliable arterial-venous
separation.

MR Echo
|
|
 |
3D FIESTA |
MR Echo provides an environment and tools for generating high-definition
cardiac exams in real time without the need for respiratory or ECG gating.
MR Echo employs accelerated FIESTA, time course or myocardial delayed enhancement
techniques to help perform cardiac exams in real time, in a non-gated or VCG-gated
modi. The intuitive interface enables the user to quickly scan the heart
in any orientation and to save real time images.
|
|
The FIESTA 3D pulse sequence generates excellent high-resolution images
of fluid filled structures. Ultra-short TR's and TE's allow rapid 3D imaging
within very short scan times with outstanding T2w image contrast.
|
| |
|
|
 |
2D FIESTA
|
|
 |
3D FatSat FIESTA |
The FIESTA 2D pulse sequence provides excellent blood to myocardium contrast
optimized for cardiac imaging. The short TR/TE capability of this sequence
allows acquisition of high quality cardiac images that are less sensitive
to turbulent blood flow. |
|
3D FatSat FIESTA provides robust coronary artery imaging in a short breath-hold.
Fat suppression is applied to accentuate the coronary arteries.
|
| |
|
|
 |
3D FIESTA-C |
|
 |
QuickStep |
This phase-cycled FIESTA technique reduces sensitivity to changes in magnetic
susceptibility that may be encountered when imaging e.g. posterior fossa
and anatomies near air-tissue boundaries. Extremely short TR helps generate
high-resolution SNR-rich 3D images of fluid filled structures with effective
background tissue suppression, in rapid scan times. |
|
QuickSTEP is an automated multi-station
acquisition to help with the evaluation of the vascular tree. This application automatically
prescribes, acquires, and combines images from multiple stations for fast
acquisition and exam completion.

|
 |
3D Myocardial Delayed Enhancement |
|
 |
Cardiac Tagging |
MDE is a FGRE technique with IR Prep used to help assess myocardial tissue viability.
Adiabatic inversion recovery for homogenous myocardium suppression is employed
to improve CNR between infarcted and normal myocardium.
|
|
Used to improve visualization of myocardial contractile function, this tagging
application combines cardiac-gated FastCINE gradient-recalled echo to acquire
data throughout the cardiac cycle, with spatial SAT pulses applied throughout
the FOV. Using the operator's choice of diagonal stripes or a grid pattern,
tagging is applied once per R-R interval immediately following the R-wave
ECG trigger, just before the start of data acquisition.

 |
Fluoro-Triggered MRA |
|
 |
Flow Analysis 4.0 |
Fluoro-triggered MRA (FTMRA) is designed to capture angiographic images
at the precise moment of peak opacification. Rather than automating the
image-acquisition upon detection of the bolus arrival, FTMRA allows the
operator to trigger each acquisition almost instantly (less than 1 second
switch over), as soon as the operator is satisfied with the level of vessel
enhancement. The result is an interactive, ASSET compatible, accurate approach
to contrast-enhanced MRA.
|
|
Flow Analysis generates reports for the referring physician of gated phase contrast magnetic resonance (MR) images. Flow Analysis has an automated contour detection algorithm that propagates through all the phases of the cine phase contrast series.
