CAN YOU PLEASE KEEP 

IT DOWN UP THERE? 

INTRODUCING SILENT SCAN 

Humanizing MR isn’t just our philosophy. It’s our promise. 

Our promise to change how patients feel, see and hear MR 

for the better. However, now is the time to break the silent 

barrier and change the way patients hear MR forever. 

Introducing Silent Scan * . Using a unique combination of 

breakthrough technologies, we’ve made MR as silent as a 

whisper. The day when your patients can undergo an MR 

scan without the added anxiety of loud noise is here. And 

we’ve accomplished this while still providing the excellent 

image quality you need to make a confident diagnosis. 

It’s time to hear the difference.

The first-ever digital broadband MR is changing expectations, 

and lives. That’s the power of Philips Imaging 2.0. 

Thanks to Philips Imaging 2.0, a revolutionary new imaging approach, the Philips Ingenia 1.5T and 3.0T MR 

systems set a new standard in clarity, speed and expandability. Ingenia captures and digitizes the signal closest 

to the patient to improve SNR by up to 40%. Easier coil handling and improved patient comfort help increase 

productivity by up to 30%. And, Ingenia is designed to meet the growing 

needs in oncology imaging. Discover the revolution in MR technology at

MAGNETOM Prisma * 

Understanding functional processes and the most threatening diseases. 

MAGNETOM Prisma, our upcoming and powerful 3T MRI 

system, is built to tackle the most demanding research 

challenges of today and tomorrow. It delivers maximum 

performance under prolonged high-strain conditions 

opening new possibilities for imaging functional 

processes and understanding the most threatening 

diseases. Only one of many high performance features is 

the new gradient system. With its higher gradient 

amplitude it delivers significantly higher signal-to-noise 

ratio, enhancing for example physiological imaging or 

morphometric measurements. With higher spatial and 

temporal resolution you can see excellent anatomical 

detail, for example displaying functional and structural 

brain connectivity. MAGNETOM Prisma delivers 

benchmark 3T magnet homogeneity – the basis for 

superior quantitative evaluations. Our new, powerful 3T 

system helps you enter new areas of research and 

strengthen your leadership in MRI. 

* MAGNETOM Prisma is currently under development; it is not for sale 

in the U.S. and other countries. Its future availability cannot be 

guaranteed.

Aspect Imaging’s world-class M2 

compact high-performance MRI imaging 

system enables unique applications of MR 

imaging in markets where conventional 

MRI is too expensive, too complex to 

install and operate, and limited due to 

its need for a shielded facility. Aspect 

Imaging is pleased to showcase a 

complete line of four compact, highperformance 

magnets at ISMRM 2013 

showing the breadth of self-shielded, 

compact high-performance systems 

available for pre-clinical and advanced 

industrial applications. As with all of 

Aspect Imaging compact MRI systems, 

the magnets have the common benefits 

of self-shielding (no dedicated facilities 

or shielded rooms required), silent operation, 

no special cooling or power requirements, 

and having no eddy current and 

virtually no external fringe field—which 

allow the systems the flexibility to be 

placed in many locations in a hospital, 

lab or industrial setting. Please also visit 

Aspect Imaging’s sister booth (#349) to

and for medical research applications. 

These are simple in design, simple to 

make and will improve image quality 

by a factor of 2-3 fold. This improvement 

can make MRI exams significantly 

faster and/or improve image quality 

and resolution. The impact of this on 

biomedical research and health care 

should be significant. This is especially 

the case for lower fields (7T and below) 

and at clinically relevant fields of 1.0T 

and 1.5T- where we have demonstrated 

SNR gains of > than 3 at 1.5T using 

phased arrays. TCC provides custom

Conaptic produces Calpendo, an intelligent 

booking system designed to 

manage bookings and projects for shared 

equipment. Originally designed for a busy 

MR laboratory at the University of Oxford, 

Calpendo is now in use in universities 

across North America, Europe and Asia. 

You can choose the rules that control who 

can make what bookings and Calpendo 

enforces your rules for you. 

Calpendo takes the hassle out of scheduling 

to minimise mistakes and stress, and 

maximise efficient use of your scanner. 

Calpendo will save you time and money. 

You won’t want to change your booking 

system again. 

Conaptic also produces Exprodo, 

web-based database software that can 

be used by a project to store all of its 

non-imaging data and control exactly who 

has what access to your data. Exprodo 

can also keep track of all your project 

tasks which is especially useful for those 

projects that need to see subjects multiple 

times.

FEKO (www.feko.info) is a powerful tool 

with Method of Moments (MoM) and 

Finite Element Method (FEM) solvers. 

FEKO has been successfully used in a 

number of MRI radio frequency (RF) coil 

designs and magnetic resonance (MR) 

RF safety analyses. RF coil design in 

FEKO allows for the accurate prediction 

of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), field 

homogeneity and coil safety. Accurate 

prediction of coil performance not only 

helps to optimize the coil design itself, but 

also reduces the time and cost involved in 

developing a superior RF coil for a specific 

application in MR. FEKO modeling and 

simulation greatly assist in the development 

of surface coils, volume coils and 

array coils. For RF safety, FEKO calculates 

very reliably volume averaged SAR 

(Specific Absorption Rate) in 1-g, 10-g

studies of cells labeled with stable 

magnetic nanoparticles. 

Quantify magnetic labels in tissue and 

blood samples with the Pepric tool. 

Pepric instruments are based on pEPR 

(particle-EPR) resulting in a direct and 

selective detection of magnetic nanoparticles. 

The method provides the capability 

of quantifying particles or magnetically 

labeled cells. And therefore, pEPR 

is complementary to MRI having an excellent 

spatial resolution for cell or particle 

location. 

The pEPR method is non-invasive for the 

cells, cells keep their functionality. 

Measurement results are obtained by 

simple and fast operation of the instrument. 

Blood and tissue samples are analyzed 

directly and do not require specific 

sample preparation. 

And tissue samples are conserved for 

further analysis, for example for histology.

CT-compatible. An ultra-miniature fiber 

optic pressure sensor provides real time 

pressure measurements in mice, rats and 

larger animals. The sensor can be used to 

measure pressure in the heart, ventricles 

of the brain, spinal canal, etc. It can also 

be used to make a minimally invasive IBP 

measurement with a needle stick into an 

artery. Also available is a ventilator with 

remote, miniature, pneumatic valves that 

provides ventilation for animals as small 

as mice even in the MR environment. 

Ventilation rates up to 150 breathes/ 

minute are supported. Systems are also 

available to accommodate monitoring 

and gating multiple animals in multiple 

imaging modalities simultaneously. A new 

water bed heater system allows animal 

temperature to be regulated even in tight 

imaging setups.
