Toshiba Medical Launches New MR System for Efficient and Standardized Cardiac Exams
Presenting significant improvements to cardiac MR imaging, Toshiba
Medical's Vantage Titan™ 1.5T / cS Edition with M-Power™ V3.6
software has received FDA clearance. The new system retains all the
patient-friendly features of the Vantage Titan 1.5T MR with added
technology to simplify complex cardiac exams.
The Vantage Titan / cS Edition offers cardiologists and radiologists a
comprehensive suite of innovative applications to help them improve
their workflow and patient comfort:
-
SUREVOITM with
CardioLine+ (Option): The system offers SUREVOI Cardiac
anatomy recognition technology to automatically determine the position
of the heart. The enhanced CardioLine application CardioLine+ works
with SUREVOI to automatically detect anatomical landmarks
for accurate and reproducible positioning to complete alignment of 14
standard cardiac views with minimal operator interaction.
-
Multi b-Value Diffusion: The Vantage Titan / cS Edition allows
acquisition of multiple b-values in a single scan enabling physician
to quickly identify tissue diffusivity.
-
Multi-echo T2 Mapping: The system also supports Multi-echo T2
Mapping, enabling physicians to visualize T2 map cartilage images to
aid them in making a diagnosis and determining if treatment is needed.
-
Vitrea® Extend (Option): A
state-of-the-art post-processing application, Vitrea Extend permits
clinicians to complete post-processing at a separate workstation while
allowing the next patient exam to be conducted at the MR system. The
Vitrea Extend solution comes with expert packages powered by the
latest post-processing applications made by Olea Medical and Medis.
"The Vantage Titan / cS Edition gives healthcare providers the ability
to diversify their MR imaging offerings and reduce their exam times,
creating a new opportunity for routine cardiac MR," said Dominic Smith,
