A Comparison of Time-Efficient MR Techniques and Critical Details to Consider
So....You want to shorten the time of your MRI protocols, while also preserving the quality of the images? SpinTech MRI has the solution for you. The following abstract, led by members of Yale School of Medicine - Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, gives a structured...
Editorial: Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping in Neurodegeneration
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of resolution on iron content using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM); to verify the consistency of QSM across field strengths and manufacturers in evaluating the iron content of deep gray matter (DGM) of the human brain using subjects from multiple sites; and to establish a susceptibility baseline as a function of age for each DGM structure using both a global and regional iron analysis.
Iron Content in Deep Gray Matter as a Function of Age Using Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping: A Multicenter Study
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of resolution on iron content using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM); to verify the consistency of QSM across field strengths and manufacturers in evaluating the iron content of deep gray matter (DGM) of the human brain using subjects from multiple sites; and to establish a susceptibility baseline as a function of age for each DGM structure using both a global and regional iron analysis.
Use Cases
Traumatic Brain Injury Use Case
The STAGE protocol is designed to be highly sensitive to the visualization of lesions that may originate from trauma. STAGE has the ability to demonstrate key vascular brain damage which may be missed by conventional or low resolution scans…
Stroke Detection Use Case
STAGE is designed to benefit imaging and replace standard GRE and SWI in the acute and follow-up setting due to its high sensitivity to blood product lesions in the brain in the form of cerebral microbleeds and thrombus as well as…
Aging & Dementia Use Case
STAGE provides a method to visualize brain tissue and neurovascular changes and lesions in the aging brain and Dementia. Phase data is used to reconstruct the source properties…

ISNVD’s 2021 Webinar
This January, SpinTech participated in ISNVD's annual global webinar "Approaches and Applications of Multi-Contrast Quantitative Imaging". SpinTech founder, Mark Haacke, PhD, had the opportunity to discuss STAGE in relation to the collection of big data...
See What You’re Missing: Automated Cerebral Microbleed Detection Webinar
Accurate detection of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) is incredibly important for the proper diagnosis of several neurodegenerative diseases, but these small bleeds are often missed or misinterpreted with conventional imaging. Particularly when diagnosing TBI, stroke or...
The Pulse of MRI: Managing Post-COVID Imaging Surge with Faster MRI Webinar
As the world begins reopening, medical professionals are already seeing increased demand for MRI, CT scans and other medical imaging services. For organizations with already-limited medical imaging capacity, managing this increased influx of patients can be difficult...

To Improve MRI Speed, Quality and Efficiency, Start at the Source
There have been a growing number of efforts to improve the balance between MRI speed and image quality while addressing priority concerns about radiologist burnout, staffing shortages, health system financial stability and the clinical needs of an aging population....
Clarity, Speed and Confidence vs. “Widgets”: The key to MRI efficiency
Improving MRI efficiency to improve access to advanced imaging, provider and patient experiences, and health system revenues has been a long-standing goal for radiologists and health system administrators. That’s been true long before the development of radiology AI...
