LAVA (Liver Acquisition with Volume Acquisition) is a 3D spoiled gradient echo technique optimized
for multi-phase liver imaging. LAVA combines in-plane ASSET acceleration (up to 2.5X), partial data
filling (25%) and shortened TR to enable 25% higher resolution and 25% more coverage with 25% less
scan time than previously possible. The acceleration techniques used by LAVA enable reduced scan time
and extended coverage without compromising in-plane resolution, and the result is high quality axial and
reformatted images.
LAVA also uses an optimized inversion pulse and a view ordering technique that yields enhanced image
contrast and robust, uniform fat suppression. As a result, LAVA enables reliable, high quality liver imaging
in a short breath-hold.
HD Propeller – Propeller (Periodically Rotated Overlapping ParallEL Lines with Enhanced
Reconstruction) is a revolutionary data collection technique used in conjunction with the Fast Spin Echo
pulse sequence. The name reflects the unique pattern that acquires radial blades of image data rotated
in sequence until data acquisition is complete. The redundant data created images with unusually high
contrast-to-noise ratio as well as makes the sequence insensitive to motion artifacts on T2 and T2 FLAIR
sequences and insensitive to susceptibility artifacts on DWI sequences. The result is high quality T2 and
T2 FLAIR images of the brain even when the patient fails to remain still, and high quality DWI images in
the present of dental work or surgical hardware. As a result, PROPELLER enables reliable, high quality
brain imaging.
1.5T Signa EXCITE HD Mobile Magnet and Gradient Module - The compact superconducting magnet
for mobile 1.5T Signay EXCITE HDy MR systems offers superb homogeneity. The combination of a wide
60-cm diameter bore and a patient table assembly that rests close to the bottom creates ample room
even for large patients. The magnet is actively shielded to make the magnetic field outside the bore as
weak as possible for safety and avoidance of interference with equipment operation. Innovative K4
cooling technology prevents helium boil-off and makes refills an extremely rare occurrence. The magnet
also includes 18 GE-designed superconducting shim coils to further improve the magnetic-field
homogeneity particularly for fat saturation when the field of view is large or off-center.
The Gradient Module installed within the magnet bore consists of three gradient coils and the Quadrature
transmit/receive body radiofrequency coil. Each gradient coil is designed to create a magnetic field that
changed strength linearly with in creasing distance from the center of the magnet by as much as 33 mTm.
1.5T and OpenSpeed Magnet Compressor for CXK4 Fixed, Relocatable & Mobile Systems -
Compressor designed for CXK4 magnet subsystems for 0.7T or 1.5T and compatible with fixed,
relocatable and mobile magnet configurations. Compressor is water cooled and all water cooling systems
must be a closed loop design to eliminate the possibility of magnetic contaminants entering into the
system.
1.5T 8-Channel Body Array – USA Instruments - The 8-channel Body Array is designed for high
definition MR imaging of the chest, abdomen and pelvis on 8-channel or 16-channel 1.5T EXCITE MR
systems. The 12-element Quadrature phased array coil provides extensive coverage enabling multi-
station anatomical and vascular imaging of the chest-abdomen or abdomen-pelvis without repositioning
the coil. The array is optimized for use with ASSET acceleration for enhanced breath-hold imaging
procedures.
1.5T HD 8-Channel Knee Array – Invivo - The 1.5T HD T/R Knee array is designed for high definition
MR imaging of the knee on 8-channel or 16-hannel 1.5T EXCITE HD MR systems. This array uses
unique hybrid technology using separate birdcage coils for transmit and receive functions. Designed
uniquely for GE, the 8 element receive coil delivers 30% --100% more SNR than the standard extremity
