Enhanced Neuroimaging Service—GE 3T Signa® HDx MR Scanner

CD BioSciences' Neuroimaging Centre is a research platform with multiple large research facilities at its core, providing enhanced neuroimaging services in multiple areas. We offer GE 3T Signa® HDx MR Scanner-based neuroimaging solutions, please read on to find out more.

Name of the Instrument/Platform

GE 3T Signa® HDx MR Scanner

Required Training

The short-bore magnet provides a low incidence of claustrophobia. The gradient rise time (150 T/m/s) and peak gradient strength (50 mT/m per axis) are among the best in the industry for whole-body systems. Parallel imaging technology allows EPI images to be acquired with higher temporal resolution and with less distortion for fMRI studies and other EPI-based image acquisitions. This MRI system will also be capable of running fMRI studies in a "real-time" mode, in which an investigator can assess the data quality during scanning, and see the activation maps after each functional run. MRI research at MSU also benefits from a close collaborative relationship and formal research agreement with GE. All technical aspects of the scanner are accessible to MRI physicists, including the pulse programming module (EPIC).

Summary

This system has an actively shielded short-bore (2.06 m width × 1.72 m length) magnet, a fast gradient system that provides high-speed brain imaging for fMRI as well as regular body imaging, a data acquisition system supporting up to 32 channels, an 8-channel head coil and other coils for this platform, a powerful volume reconstruction engine that enables virtually real-time image generation even when massive parallel imaging datasets are involved, as well as multinuclear spectroscopy hardware.
