Summary

The Bruker BioSpec^® 70/30 USR horizontal bore MRI system is designed for performing preclinical and molecular MRI. The high field MR scanner can perform both magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) for preclinical, pharmaceutical, and fundamental research. The scanner is actively-shielded 7T magnet with a 30-cm bore and cryo-refrigeration that minimizes the time and cost associated with magnet maintenance. The system is equipped with a 12 cm gradient and shim coil set (B-GA12S HP), capable of generating maximum gradient amplitude of 660 mT/m, rise time of 80 to 120 us, slew rate of 4570 T/m/s, and 4-channel receiver for multi-coil operation.
The operating console has ParaVision 360 (v2.0pl1) acquisition workplace, which features the following: built-in parallel acquisition; push-button GRAPPA reconstruction; EPI, navigator techniques for motion reduction; ultra-short TE acquisition; Half-Fourier encoding; self-gated IntraGate; real-time di

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique that uses magnetic fields and computer-generated radio waves to create detailed images of organs and tissues. CD BioSciences offers a 7T Bruker Scanner-based MRI service. Please contact us directly if you have a request.
