Phoenix – What you see is what you get

The unique Phoenix technique from Siemens is the easiest way to exchange protocol data. It supports intelligent extraction of sequence parameters from images acquired worldwide with MAGNETOM systems via network, CD exchange, or the Internet. By simply dragging the desired image into the measurement queue, Phoenix extracts the protocol from the DICOM header in the images, and instantly duplicates the protocol – TR, TE, bandwidth, number of slices, echo spacing, etc. The same parameters can be applied for subsequent scans.

Phoenix is standard on all MAGNETOM systems

Supports multi-center protocol standardization
Improves reproducibility of studies, e.g. in case of follow-up or research
Helps to establish new applications quickly. Expertise from other sites is available in seconds
Shares optimized protocols on the different MAGNETOM systems
Is an effective tool for monitoring and assessing quality and can help to maintain the highest possible performance level
Is a tool for the visual selection of applications that are either new to a facility or for facilities that are in the start-up phase
Enables MAGNETOM users around the world to exchange protocols and benefit from the experience of other experts, e.g. by downloading images from the internet

PhoenixZIP
PhoenixZIP allows the transfer of whole measurement programs in an easy and simple way. Once measured examinations can be restored from the PACS, data sets can be exchanged between MAGNETOM systems via Internet or storage media like CD or DVD. The data sets for PhoenixZIP contain the protocol data of all protocols of the measurement as well as the order and conjunctions of these. Therefore PhoenixZIP offers an effective and time – efficient way to exactly reproduce once measured examinations.
