New Technique that Could Significantly Simplify Hyperpolarized MRI Paves Way for Major Advances

Researchers have developed a new technique that could significantly simplify hyperpolarized magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which developed around 20 years ago for observing metabolic processes in the body, and pave the way for major advances in MRI. More...

Rapid Knee MRI Scanning May Soon Be Attainable

Simultaneous multislice (SMS) and parallel imaging (PI) acceleration can reduce the time needed to acquire a knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan to less than five minutes, according to a new study. More...

A Minimal Footprint Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Scanner Helps Radiology Departments Address Overloads and Backlog

The Esaote (Genova, Italy) O-scan Elite MRI facilitates transversal, sagittal, coronal and oblique section imaging of the arm, including hand, wrist, forearm, and elbow, but excluding the upper part of the arm; and portions of the leg, including foot, ankle, calf, and knee, but excluding the thigh. As the O-scan MRI runs on a standard power outlet, and does not require helium cooling, it is a viable, cost effective solution that also impacts patient comfort. For pathologies in which it can be beneficial to image the joint in real-time movement, the Esaote True Motion can perform a regular MRI sequence. More...

Multi-Parametric Prostate MRI Underestimates Tumor Size

A new study suggests that multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) routinely measures radiologic tumor size (RTS) as smaller than actual pathologic tumor size (PTS). More...

Novel MRI Contrast Agent Swiftly Eliminated from Body

A new study suggests that a manganese (Mn) based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent could soon replace gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) as a non-toxic alternative. More...
