Simplifies scan setup with customized parameters
Optimizes uniformity, SNR and parallel imaging
Automatically selects which coils and elements to use
Automatically detect anatomy and prescribe slices based on the anatomical reference and orientation defined for the most commonly requested exams
Deliver consistent and quantifiable results regardless of pathology, patient position, time between scans and technologist variability
Save time by automating slice placements and avoid repeat scans
"Everything that it says it can find, it finds it with amazing accuracy. For example, if I tell AIR x™ that I want an oblique sagittal of the left optic nerve, it puts a slice right down the center of that left optic nerve immediately. It can save me some eye strain, save time from tweaking parameters, and get me going a little bit faster. AIR x™ is right... every single time."

When paired with advanced imaging applications, these workflow and processing improvements deliver simply better versatility and productivity gains along with industry-leading image quality.
Using a deep-learning algorithm based on over 36,000 images, AIR x™ is our revolutionary workflow tool for knee and brain exams that automatically prescribes slices to help eliminate error-prone, manual slice placements. Studies have shown 5x faster set-up time and 4x fewer clicks with AIR x™ so technologists can soar through set-up and ease through exams. No matter who is scanning, with AIR x™, you’ll get the consistent and precise prescription set up for patients regardless of their age, pathology or position in the magnet.
Accelerate your scanning process the minute the patient gets on the table with AIR Touch™, a workflow application that automates coil selection and landmarking. With AIR Touch™, you simply use IntelliTouch™, GE’s 1-touch landmarking tool, to activate an optimized set of coils that is selected based on the patient’s anatomy. This advanced technology selects from unlimited coil combinations such as the posterior array (PA) and flexible coils, to efficiently set up patients. With the anatomically-based protocol optimization, AIR Touch™ adjusts for the anatomy and the protocol parameters with a single touch, delivering a 59%* productivity gain from plan to scan. AIR Touch™ automatically integrates all calibration scans, providing uninterrupted workflow for the technologist. Further scan time savings are realized with flexible No Phase Wrap (NPW) to scan only what you need while allowing you to focus on your patient, not the scanner.
