- Powerful Gradient System
Integrated technologies for high quality imaging.
A new mechanism to improve signal acquisition efficiency for high SNR imaging.
A new algorithm to reduce noise in image reconstruction.
- Signal Acquisition Efficiency - Noise Mitigation
- SmartENGINE
The advanced specification of MRI sub-systems makes the most important impact on the delivery of image
quality without compromise. ECHELON Smart is equipped with powerful sub-systems which includes the
SmartENGINE which supports high quality imaging and high performance RF system to empower robust
imaging technologies.
To boost your productivity, ECHELON Smart offers features that streamline workflow and enhance
throughput, such as AutoPose and Parameter Guidance function for easy and fast operation. Fast scan
capabilities and robust scan techniques to reduce re-scanning contribute to shorter scan times, and on-
console analysis functions reduce the transfer time of data to the workstation. With the SmartSPEED
feature, your operational efficiency is improved.
