TimCT Oncology

TimCT Oncology

Whole-body scan with TimCT, demonstrating extensive metastatic spread

TimCT Oncology uses a sophisticated patient table with excellent position accuracy and a RF shielded table drive as well as Tim (Total imaging matrix) technology: at the same time, local coils with high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) covering the whole body enable superb image quality and very fast imaging using integrated Parallel Acquisition Techniques (iPAT).

Caratteristiche e vantaggi

TimCT Oncology is based on axial 2D multi-slice sequences for both T1-weighted FLASH and T2-weighted TSE imaging. The TSE variant can also be combined with syngo BLADE for motion insensitivity. The FLASH variant can also be combined with DIXON to acquire inphase, opposed-phase, water and fat images in one measurement.

TimCT Oncology allows a CT-like MR examination:

Definition of start point and end point of scan area only
No need to plan in multiple steps
No need to plan overlapping areas
No delay, no measurement pauses during table move
No need for composing
