PharmaScan
MRI Scanner for Pharmaceutical and Molecular Imaging Research
The PharmaScan®, a high-field, easy-to-use and at the same time easy-to-install and very cost-effective MR-system. It is designed for MRI applications on small animals such as mice and rats in the field of routine pharmaceutical, biomedical and molecular imaging research.
Main Features
- MRI and MRS routine system for protons, optimized for small rodents (such as rats, mice, gerbils)
- Actively shielded magnets at 4.7 T and 7 T allows easy and cost-efficient siting
- 16 cm clear bore size with 72 mm free access for the animal
- Actively shielded gradient system
- Parallel imaging (GRAPPA) for almost all applications including EPI
- High performance BGA-9 or BGA-9S gradients with highest amplitude, slew rates, shim strengths, and duty cycles optimized for small animal imaging
- No Faraday cage required 25 m2 floor space required Scalable AVANCETM III RF architecture incorporates up to 4 receivers
- AutoPac™ - Motorized, software controlled animal positioning system for routine animal handling and increased animal throughput
- IntraGate™ - Self gated steady-state cardiac imaging package requiring no external sensor hardware and trigger devices
- Phased-array RF coil technology for increased sensitivity and reduced scan times
- MRI CryoProbe™ - Sensitivity increase up to a factor of 2.5 enables MRI of microscopic pathologies
- ParaVision® - Fully intuitive software package for multi-dimensional MRI/ MRS data acquisition, reconstruction, analysis and visualization
