ARMRIT to ARRT pathway - - - HELP
I currently work with an open magnet. It's by Siemens Magnetom Concerto. The system is an open unit, low field magnet. I have almost 2 years experience as an MRI Technologist, with experience on head & neck imaging, upper and lower extremities, MRA and MRV. I am also CPR and IV certified. In addition, I have 1 month training with the Siemens trio 3T closed unit.

Without the ARRT certification, it has been a challenge. I am willing to show clinics and private facilities what I'm a capable of doing most scans and my dedication to the MRI community, but with only ARMRIT certified tech, it's so rare to get opportunities.

Hope you can help, thanks.

ETL for a STIR
It depends.

When Centric echo allocation is used you have higher SNR, a low TE, but more image blurring. Very similar to a PD. I prefer an echo train of less than 8 in this case.

When Sequential echo allocation is used you have lower SNR, a higher TE (I prefer less than a TE of 60), but significantly less image blurring. Very similar to a T2 or FLAIR. In this case your echo train length is governed by your TE and image blurring is not usually an issue. Depending on how short of an inter-echo time you can use, and by keeping an eye on the TE, the echo train can be as high as you want.

Hope this helps.

scan matrices and steps
Hello,
I've just joined this forum because I'm a Japanese-English translator and often translate MRI related material, but my knowledge is a bit patchy. I have a rather basic question. Part of a product specification goes (translated):
Scan Matrix: 64 – 1024 x 64 – 1024; 4 steps per

I assume this is 4 steps per scan, but wanted to check just in case. Also could anyone explain what is meant by steps in this context?

Thanks very much

T1 FAT SAT PRE AND POS GADO
The contrast agent causes this difference. Contrast agents reduce the T1 time in tissues where they have accumulated depending on blood flow and vascular permeability. Caused by this, tissues after an application of contrast agents will differ in shortening of the T1 time, and the same imaging parameters result in other image appearance.
Some helpful links for musculoskeletal imaging and Fat Sat:

Hope this helps
