Innovations for Ultra-High Field Animal MRI

MRI Newsletter, October 2006

 

New 11.7 T BioSpec system based on USR magnet technology

The new BioSpec 117/16 is based on the first horizontal ultra-high field magnet that combines active shielding and refrigeration technology at extreme high magnetic fields of 11.7 T.
 

Dramatic improvements from cryogenically cooled RF coils for MRI

Bruker BioSpin's pioneering CryoProbe™ technology is now realized for in-vivo MRI. For applications at 9.4T improvements in SNR are about a factor of 2!

ClinScan: Innovative animal scanner based on Siemens syngo technology

ClinScan is a new 7T clinically-oriented animal MRI scanner designed to advance 'mice to men' translational research in the field of preclinical and molecular imaging. A wide range of imaging application (e.g. 3D T1 MPRAGE, T2 TSE, cardiac cine FLASH, CSI) have been successfully implemented.
 

ParaVision 4.0 delivers ever-increasing functionality

The latest release includes routine Parallel Imaging, a new 3D evaluation tool
for diffusion tensor imaging techniques, multi-shot echo planar imaging and segmented spiral scanning designed for ultra-high field applications.
 

IntraGate: Self-gated cardiac MRI

Benefiting from our innovative self-gating technique for cardiac applications, IntraGate enables retrospectively gated cine imaging without the use of respiratory or ECG- triggering devices.
