SPED
SPED
SPED is the Spin Echo fat-water separation sequence based on the Dixon technique generating a contrast similar to a FATSAT type of scan.
SPED is therefore a valuable addition to the current range of fat suppression sequences.
Main characteristics:
- SPED is robust and less prone to artefacts.
- Morphological information and Fat-Suppression images.
- Possibility to achieve different contrast, T1 and PD based on the chosen TR.
- Efficient in presence of metal implants.
MAR
MAR
- The patient population with metal implants is steadily growing; in the USA an estimated 2,4 % of the population or 7,2 mln patients have a hip or knee implant (data Mayo clinic 2014).
- MAR uses a sophisticated gradients management system to suppress or reduce in-plane metal distortions for optimal image quality*.
- MAR improves imaging of post-operative patients.

3D Iso
Small details can make a difference in your diagnosis:
3D HYCE and 3D SHARC sequences based on balanced Steady State Free precession allow the acquisition of large volumes in a short time.
Characteristics:
- High resolution, up to 0.4mm for each anatomical plane, making it possible to visualize small details.
- Image the desired anatomy in all three planes with a single sequence.
- Reduced partial volume artifacts and better definition of nonplanar structures.
- Quick and flexible post processing with Multi Planar Reconstruction (MPR).
