Prostate MRI

New certainty in prostate cancer assessment

Thanks to the excellent SNR provided by our Tim 4G coils, the use of endorectal coils is no longer a necessity for high-quality prostate imaging. Designed as our top-of-the-line solution, the Body 60 coil can be used to reduce scan times by up to 25%¹ helping to improve your institutions´ process efficiency.

High-quality diffusion-weighted imaging is of utmost importance in multiparametric MRI of the prostate. With ZOOMit^PRO and RESOLVE we provide two independent techniques to tailor the exam to every patient's needs:

RESOLVE reduces blurring and susceptibility to artifacts, i.e. in patients with gas in the rectum or artificial implants. The resulting images are largely free of distortions and provide high spatial resolution. With RESOLVE you are able to improve your clinical capabilities by using a technique that achieves diagnostic images even in patients with metal implants.² 

ZOOMit^PRO is a method for high-resolution, zoomed FOV imaging, allowing diffusion-weighted images with high contrast and resolution in short acquisition times.

As part of the basic configuration within the syngo.MR General Engine, syngo.MR Prostate Reading allows for intuitive and comprehensive reading and reporting of multiparametric prostate exams. According to the PI-RADS standard, lesions can be rated on a 5-point Likert scale, and findings can be visualized intuitively in a prostate pictogram. This eases communication with referring urologists, ultimately improving your institutional workflows.

With Prostate MR³ we introduce a key solution to support consistent, high-quality prostate MRI reading and reporting. By deploying artificial intelligence, Prostate MR³ assists in the interpretation of multiparametric Prostate MRI. The deep neural networks of Prostate MR³ are designed to improve the detection and classification of prostate lesions and to reduce the time needed for reporting by generating a pre-populated report. 

Prostate MR – For biopsy support provides an automated segmentation of the prostate and estimates the prostate volume. Location and contours of biopsy targets can be added manually. The results can be exported in the DICOM RT Structure Set format to support MR/US-fusion biopsies. 

Next to on-premise access through syngo.via, MR prostate biopsy support is also available via the cloud-based AI-Rad Companion. The assistant powered by AI helps you to reduce the burden of basic repetitive tasks and may increase your diagnostic precision when interpreting medical images. 

syngo.MR OncoTrend as part of the syngo.MR Oncology Workflow enables accurate monitoring of oncological lesions, helping determine whether treatment is effective or potentially needs to be reconsidered. A comparison of up to eight exams at different time points is now possible, visualizing regional changes of tissue characteristics.
