New 3T Elition Scanner The newly installed 3T 鈥淓lition X鈥 scanner from Philips is a major advance for the 香港六合彩挂牌资料 imaging unit. The new 3T scanner brings with it improvements in signal to noise through a fully digital architecture, along with speed improvements through enhanced SENSE capabilities. This increase in imaging signal and acquisition speed allows improved spatial and temporal resolution, increasing the data collected within a single scan. With high speed - high duty gradients, compressed SENSE, and simultaneous multiband imaging, the 3T Elition allows for whole brain fMRI coverage at a 2x2x2 mm3 resolution in less than 0.8 secs.
In addition to improvements in fMRI based measures, the Elition X comes with an impressive array of advanced imaging sequences, allowing high resolution mapping of structure (DTI, DSI and white matter tractography) and metabolism (arterial spin labelling for cerebral blood flow, Angiography, magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), and amide proton transfer (APT)).
While predominantly focused on the brain and CNS, the BIU also has a full suite of musculoskeletal, cardiac, renal, and peripheral imaging techniques available, allowing other organ systems to be investigated.
Peripheral accessories include specialised stimulus delivery computers, custom built participant interface devices, physiologic status measurements (SpO2, ETCO2, respiration, VCG) enhanced visual and auditory delivery systems, custom built exercise equipment, and image analysis systems for student researchers.
These facilities allow researchers at 香港六合彩挂牌资料 to pursue their imaging-based research with cutting edge tools, and drive our world leading research.
