Focus on MR Technology

New hardware and methods drive change in MR imaging. Method development however can be challenging, as determining the root cause of an issue using images can lead to vague and sometimes contradictory findings. Directly measuring the field using Skope tools gives you clear and unambiguous information that can be used to further develop your MR techniques - leading to meaningful changes in the way MRI is conducted.

Skope develops advanced dynamic field measurement solutions tailored to meet the critical needs of MR physicists and engineers in their quest to develop mew imaging techniques, be it new hardware, a new image contrast, or fundamental improvements to existing sequences. Skope solutions are essential for ensuring that MR methods are developed harnessing the best possible encoding strategies and field dynamics, while providing fully quantitative data in a streamlined and intuitive workflow.

Skope’s technology accurately measures the dynamic field of the MR scanner, showing deviations from expected or predicted values. These measurements help you identify the source of deviations so they can be eliminated from the finished application, producing images with consistent geometry, fewer artifacts, and improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

Utilizing Skope tools has allowed MR technology researchers to improve already well-proven imaging techniques such as the Human Connectome Project protocols and also develop state-of the art technologies, such as non-linear diffusion encoding, non-cartesian trajectories, and high slew rate gradients systems. These developments further Skope’s critical innovation goal to enable new MR methods which aid progress in understanding, diagnosing, and treating neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and Alzheimer's, helping to advance research that leads to better outcomes for patients.
