MR Neurovascular Array Coil

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 18 Jul 2005
A 1.5-Telsa, high definition (HD) neurovascular array coil has been developed that supports a hypertronics connector to fully utilize the benefits of the Sigma 1.5T Excite HDMR (magnetic resonance) imaging system technology, developed by General Electric Healthcare (Waukesha, WI, USA). More...


The coil was developed by Medrad, Inc. (Indianola, PA, USA) and will be sold exclusively through GE Healthcare. The array coil has been designed and evaluated to provide excellent image quality in the head, neck, cervical spine, and upper chest.

"The 1.5T HD neurovascular array coil for GE Excite HDMR systems enables outstanding image quality with the highest signal-to-noise and uniformity that we have encountered for imaging of the brain and the vasculature in the head and neck,” said Michael Wood, general manager, MR Research Collaboration, GE Healthcare. Furthermore, the coil supports a novel open architecture with a pivoting anterior paddle to provide full patient comfort.

Medrad is a leading developer of medical devices and services that enable and improve imaging procedures of the human body. Medrad was a 2003 recipient of the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, the top honor a U.S. company can receive for quality and business excellence. Medrad is a U.S. affiliate of Schering AG (Germany).
