MAGNETOM Concerto
performance
Exceptional Image Quality
Spine images
Spine imaging
- Head/neck array combination with C-IPATM: combined examinations of head and neck or spine
- Head Array: translucent head coil with integrated mirror
- CP Body Array Coils with high signal-to-noise ratio
C-Spine 3D imaging
- Siemens unique 3D Medic
- 3D MEDIC sequences for reduced motion artifacts
T2 3D Medic tra: 3mm, 40 sl, 5.30 min, unique with minimal flow artifacts
Right image:
T1 3D FLASH Water Excitation for excellent fat suppression
C-Spine 3D imaging (cont.)
- 3D CISS or 3D TrueFISP for high resolution, myelographic studies in the spine
T2 3D TrueFISP sag: see the Syrinx
Right image:
T2 3D CISS tra:
excellent contrast between cord and surrounding cerebro-spinal-fluid - see exiting nerve roots
l-Spine T2 imaging
- 3D TrueFISP for high resolution, myelographic studies in the spine
- TSE Restore gives an good T2 contrast in short scan times
T2 3D TrueFISP, 1.5 mm, 64 part. only 5 minutes
Right image:
TSE Restore, TE 127, 30 cm, 4mm, 6 min
l-Spine 3D imaging
- 3D CISS for high resolution, myelographic studies in the spine
- 3D FLASH for excellent T1 weigthed images
T1 3D FLASH, 3mm, 384 x 512, 25 cm, 36 sl, 6.30 min
Right image:
3D CISS, 4mm, 512 x 512, 28 SL, 5:50
Excellent Turbo Spinecho routine imaging
Left image:
T1 TSE, TA 4:36 min, SL: 4 mm, 256 Matrix, 11 Slices, large FoV of 340 mm
Right image:
T2 TSE: SL: 4 mm, 256 Matrix, 11 Slices, post fracture
We show a small selection of MAGNETOM Concerto's capacities due to space constraints.
