The project NEUROQUANT – Neurovascular MR coil powered by quantitative neuroimaging technologies for Alzheimer’s disease diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy monitoring, has been awarded a prestigious grant through a joint initiative from Innovate UK and Innosuisse – Swiss Innovation Agency. Skope is one of the project partners.
Learn how advances in MRI physics and technology, driven by increasing magnetic field strengths and gradient power, are revolutionizing diffusion MRI to uncover the intricate pathophysiology of diseases.
Our new DICOM Viewer now includes images acquired with the NeuroCam 3T Excellence and the NeuroCam 7T Standard. Take a look at the latest images!
Being able to directly visualize the gradient moments made it easy to identify the error and fix the calculation in the pulse sequence.
Oscillating gradient spin-echo (OGSE) diffusion acquisitions offer unique microstructural insight but suffer limited sensitivity due to the characteristically long TEs. This shortcoming can be mitigated by combining OGSE with spiral readouts…
Having access to the raw trajectory data from the Skope system and libraries with which to read them allowed us to successfully develop our model-based reconstruction algorithm and generate high-fidelity images.
Fast, non-Cartesian imaging is simpler than ever since we rely on the Dynamic Field Camera for system characterization and trajectory measurement. Real-time field monitoring with a Clip-on Camera has become a cornerstone of our 7T program.
At the UMC Utrecht we have built up quite some experience with the 16-channel Skope system for monitoring B0 field fluctuations in the human body at high field. We strive to stabilize sensitive MRI and MRS/MRSI acquisitions by correcting the acquisition and reconstruction techniques for B0 instabilities caused by (involuntary) patient movement.
We are end-users of this technology who expect ease of use. Our installation was a seamless process during which both sales team and the MR experts at Skope were a pleasure to work with.
The Skope staff have always been really helpful in sorting out any issues that I faced as my project developed over the past 5 years. The field camera is a very friendly solution that gives room to personalize data acquisition thanks to the MatLab-package scanner interface.
Our Clip-on Camera has been invaluable to monitor field stability and fluctuations in MR thermometry. If thermal measurements are to remain non-invasive in vivo, it is impossible to obtain definite proof without in situ measurements.
