Clinical accuracy and speed of diagnosis in vascular MRI
Our Elite Vascular Clinical Solutions provide the tools you need for Vascular MR imaging, adapted for use in daily clinical routine work.
By combining state-of-the-art imaging techniques and streamlined workflow support tools, our Elite Vascular solutions help to enhance clinical accuracy, diagnostic capabilities and speed of diagnosis in vascular MR imaging.
Elite Vascular brings you:
| • | dStream full digital technology for high SNR, FlexStream for patient comfort, SmartSelect for operator efficiency and dS-SENSE for added speed |
| • | Fast analysis of even the most challenging vascular pathologies with time-resolved MRA |
| • | Non-contrast MRA methods |
| • | Vessel Explorer for vessel measurements on-the-fly. |
Digital technology, patient comfort, operator efficiency and speed |
 | Ingenia’s dStream technology gives you a flying start for MRA studies. The increase of SNR up to 40%, thanks to digitization right at the surface coil elements, opens the way to increased temporal and spatial resolution. FlexStream brings patient comfort with table-integrated posterior coils and strapless anterior coils, as well as operator efficiency with increased table stroke for free choice of head-first or feet-first examinations and flexible dS-SENSE performance. After planning your ROI, SmartSelect automatically finds and activates all coil elements that increase SNR, for optimized image quality without additional effort. |
Dynamic analysis of challenging vascular pathologies |
 | Our 4D-TRAK (4D Time Resolved Angio using Keyhole) and SENSE provide a sequence that combines speed and dynamic high-resolution 3D MRA imaging. 4D-TRAK provides information that can be critical for diagnosis, for example, by visualizing the feeding and draining in arteriovenous malformations (AVM). With speeds up to 60 times faster than conventional MR angiography. |
Perform non-invasive vascular exams with non-contrast MRA |
 | Sequences such as TRANCE enable you to perform MRA studies without using contrast agents. Non-contrast MRA is a simple solution suitable for all patients, including kidney patients for whom gadolinium-based contrast agents are unsuitable. |

| Our Vessel Explorer helps you to quickly quantify lesions in seconds. A smart “ring” algorithm provides real-time perpendicular cross-sections and longitudinal curved MPRs of any vessel, as well as area-, length- and stenosis measurements. As a result, lesion analysis becomes truly quantitative instead of a qualitative estimate – in the same amount of time. |
