Technologies – Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging

 

Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imagingª for flow systems upgrades signal processing software to enhance the resolution of existing MRI equipment.  This allows flow studies inside the vascular tree, ranging from flow studies in the heart, major arteries and through replacement devices (e.g., valves), to more delicate studies of flow patterns in the brain.  Xoetronics’ Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imagingª uses a proprietary Bayesian-based methodology of conditional probabilities to enhance the resolution of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) flow systems.  The role of dynamic imaging in medicine is constantly and briskly growing in importance as a tool for diagnosis and research.  Most importantly is the role of flow studies inside the vascular tree: which range from flow studies in the heart, major arteries, and through replacement devices like valves, to more delicate studies of flow patterns in the brain.  Typically, flow studies of smaller, deeper vessels necessitate complicated invasive techniques such as the use of radio-labeled substances.  Even so, these techniques lack the resolution to provide detailed flow parameters on a small scale.
