Accelerated Advance Neuro Application for Clinical Routine
Sponsored by Siemens Healthineers
- Simultaneous Multi-Slice is a paradigm shift in MRI acquisition. This revolutionary technology helps cut neuro DWI scan times by as much as 68%, with either SMS EPI or Siemens exclusive SMS RESOLVE. SMS significantly improves the temporal resolution for BOLD fMRI, for higher sensitivity or specificity.
- Compressed Sensing (CS) speeds up data acquisition with sparse data subsampling by a factor of up to 40.1 At the same time by applying CS reconstruction to the raw data excellent image quality can be achieved. The acceleration makes it possible to either cut acquisition time or increase spatial and/or temporal resolution.
