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...
As the world begins reopening, medical professionals are already seeing increased demand for MRI, CT scans and other medical imaging services.
Join us for our webinar discussing how STAGE’s 40% faster full-brain MRI scan can help facilities manage the medical imaging surge.
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…
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…
For many, the term Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) brings to mind the 2015 film “Concussion”, starring Will Smith and based on the true story of Dr. Bennett Omalu, who discovered the link between repeated trauma to the head endured by professional football players and brain function degradation.
Current imaging technologies are unable to accurately identify the key-biomarkers for traumatic brain injury in a clinically meaningful timeframe. The result can be deadly. Read more from the Wall Street Journal: ...
Abstract Susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) is an essential magnetic resonance imaging sequence in the assessment of acute ischemic stroke. In this article, we discuss the physics principals and clinical application of conventional SWI and multi-echo SWI sequences....
Abstract Susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) is a method that uses the intrinsic nature of local magnetic fields to enhance image contrast in order to improve the visibility of various susceptibility sources and to facilitate the diagnostic interpretation. It is...
