Continuum Signa EXCITE


Change is good — especially when it means taking your Signa EXCITE 1.5T MR system to the state-of-the-art level of Signa HDxt without the disruption of a magnet replacement. With our cost-effective alternative to a new system, you're on the right path to increasing productivity, expanding your MR imaging services, and providing the latest MR technology to your patients.

Foundation for High-Definition Technology

Gain a superior level of crispness and clarity from the powerful foundation of a Signa magnet, gradients and VRE-recon.

  • 8Ch platform and arrays deliver significantly more signal-to-noise ratio on average than an EXCITE system, for enhanced image quality and faster scanning
  • High-definition gradients deliver greater accuracy and repeatability for faster scanning, enhanced image quality and expanded applications

Groundbreaking Applications Portfolio

Get access to one of the broadest portfolio of high-performance clinical applications in the industry. Enjoy more referrals, patients and revenue.


Improved Neuro Imaging

2D MERGE/3D COSMIC    2D MERGE/3D COSMIC
2D MERGE generates excellent gray-white matter contrast in the spinal cord without sacrificing SNR. With 3D COSMIC, you can enhance your visualization of nerve roots and inter-vertebral disks, while maintaining soft-tissue contrast.
     
Cube   Cube
Cube offers 3D high-definition imaging customized for specific brain, body and MSK imaging. Acquires gapless data from a single scan for reformatting to multiple planes.


Improved Body and Breast Imaging

LAVA XV    LAVA XV
LAVA-XV provides whole abdomen coverage with superior fat suppression and resolution.
     
VIBRANT XV   VIBRANT XV
VIBRANT lays the foundation for a complete solution with a superior combination of high spatial detail and scanning speed.


Improved Cardiac and Vascular Imaging

TRICKS-XV    TRICKS-XV
TRICKS-XV provides high spatial and temporal resolution. Simple, no-miss MRA provides high resolution, dynamic data and excellent image quality.


Improved MSK Imaging

CartiGram    CartiGram
CartiGram is a non-invasive imaging method to assess articular cartilage integrity. It provides the orthopedic surgeon with the information needed to determine best course of treatment.
     
IDEAL   IDEAL
One acquisition, multiple contrasts. This unique fat/water separation technique delivers uniform fat suppression virtually every time – from patient to patient, technologist to technologist.


Productivity Advantages

Scanning efficiencies and detachable tables make complex exams easier, and empower your technologists to create reproducible exams with every patient.

  • Fully integrated single monitor with 23-inch LCD-screen offers streamlined user interface with little technologist retraining
  • Automated features such as Autovoice, DynaPlan, and SmartCoil ID speed exam set-up and execution
  • Exclusive Liberty docking system with detachable tables improves patient safety, drives productivity and opens doors to new growth areas


Expanded Coil Offerings

Dedicated high-density coils simultaneously focus a higher number of RF elements within the imaging FOV, with each element optimized for the specific anatomy and application.

  • Exclusive head-neck-spine array provides coverage and convenience without compromising image quality
  • HD 8Ch shoulder array with exclusive concentric array design yields greater coverage while maximizing signal-to-noise ratio
  • HD 8Ch foot/ankle coil with novel “ski” boot design keeps foot flexed for proper anatomical positioning
