PROBE


PROBE 3D CSI Software is an addition to the PROBE 2000 Package that enables 3D Multi-Voxel Proton Spectroscopy. This 3D capability adds whole brain coverage to Signa's spectroscopic imaging capabilities.       Related Links

3D Multi-Voxel capabilities provide a significant enhancement to a standard Proton Spectroscopy by enabling improved anatomic coverage, SNR and resolution. PROBE 2001 is fast and easy to use, producing hi-resolution spectra in as little as 10 minutes.

Parametric metabolite maps can be created and then overlaid over the anatomical MR images for improved diagnostic confidence. Spectroscopy image processing can be performed on the operators console or on an Advantage Windows workstation.
