(MX) Dimension in the stationary (laboratory) frame of reference in the plane orthogonal (at right angles) to the direction of the static magnetic field (B0 or H0), z, and orthogonal to y, the other dimension in this plane. This is commonly defined to be in the direction of the frequency-encoding gradient.

(MY) Dimension in the stationary (laboratory) frame of reference in the plane orthogonal to the direction of the static magnetic field (B0 and H0), z, and orthogonal to x, the other dimension in this plane. This is commonly defined to be in the direction of the phase encoding gradient.

(MZ) Dimension in the direction of the static magnetic field (B0 and H0), in both the stationary and rotating frames of reference.

O-scan is manufactured and distributed by Esaote SpA
O-scan is a compact, dedicated extremity MRI system designed for easy installation and high throughput. The complete system fits in a 9' x 10' room, doesn't need for RF or magnetic shielding and it plugs in the wall. The 0.31T permanent magnet along with dual phased array RF coils, and advanced imaging protocols provide outstanding image quality and fast 25 minute complete examinations.
Esaote North America is the exclusive distributor of the O-scan system in the USA.
