Conversion Kit Transforms Clinical MRI System into a Preclinical Scanner

The carrier slides along the bed to fit tightly within the scanner. The preclinical bore links to an independent set of RI electronics and is controlled by MR Solutions EVO spectrometer. This allows the new preclinical system to work independently from the existing clinical system.

The kit includes new state of the art electronics, gradients, a user workstation, software and sequences, and animal handling, and is completely independent from the clinical system’s hardware and software. The preclinical bore can be stored in the trolley provided when not in use, and can clip onto the scanner bed.

Dr. David Taylor, CEO of MR Solutions, stated, “We are always being asked by university research units how they can make use of their very expensive clinical scanner rather than having to buy a totally new machine for preclinical research. We put a team together and have devised what we believe is a really well designed and cost effective solution providing excellent results.”
