70 cm scanner BioMatrix technology to optimize scanning parameters according to patient characteristics

Siemens Healthineers to Showcase Magentom Vida MRI at RSNA 2017

September 18, 2017 — Siemens Healthineers announced it will display the new Magnetom Vida 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system at the 2017 annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), Nov. 26-Dec. 1 in Chicago.

The 70-cm scanner features Siemens’ exclusive BioMatrix technology – a collection of sensors, tuners and interfaces that automatically adapts to anatomical and physiological characteristics to provide consistent, high-quality imaging for all patient types. The scanner architecture and applications simplify and accelerate workflows while increasing exam precision and patient comfort. It is designed with a new magnet and up to 60 mT/m gradient strength to support high-end applications.

Machine Learning IDs Markers to Help Predict Alzheimer's

Neurologists use structural and diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify changes in brain tissue (both gray and white matter) that are characteristic of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. The MRI images are analyzed using morphometry and tractography techniques, which detect changes in the shape and dimensions of the brain and in the tissue microstructure, respectively. In this example, the images show the normal brain of an elderly patient. Image courtesy of Jiook Cha.
