MR Elastography

Elastogram calculated from wave image providing reliable data about tissue stiffness¹

In collaboration with Mayo Clinic, Siemens is offering MR Elastography for almost all MAGNETOM scanner. As a result of this cooperation, a new MRI-based biomarker for characterizing tissue non-invasively is provided. Furthermore this represents a new approach of improved treatment decisions, especially in the field of liver fibrosis. The MR Elastography package includes hardware and software.
