GE LX MRI Platform? |
Marty,
Thanks for the information, it is very helpful. Do you know approximately when GE switched from 5X to LX, or from LX to Excite? Is it possible to upgrade a GE MRI from LX to Excite by replacing the workstation? Thanks again for your help.

GE LX MRI Platform? |
The LX platform is the last generation of "Signa" MRI's using the SGI Octane computer platform. GE generally uses the software version to identify systems. The LX is a 9x system. The 5x was pre- LX. The Excite, HD and HDx are 11x 12 x and 14x sysyems and use HP host computers.

flow arifact |
Hi Everyone,
I had experienced flow artifact while taking Axial images of a wrist on 1.5T Siemens MRI scanner. I was using a presaturation band to block the arterial blood flow but it was not making any difference and the artifact was still there.
The phase direction was A-P, and the artifact was in this direction.
Please help me to get rid of this artifact.

Need information/help from MRI Techs |
Allen,
MRI is one of the hardest modalities in my opinion. I would start with getting your radiology degree. It is a good foundation to know what you are looking at. You will need cross-sectional anatomy. The benefit to going into radiology is that you can branch out into multiple modalities. It will be hard to find work for you in MRI unless you have a radiology background. And if you do go into MRI without the education to back you it will be a long frustrating haul. Good luck

Can I work as MRI Tech w/ ARRT(MR) but no ARRT(R)? |
John, anyone can receive MR training. Since you are a nuc med technologist registered with the ARRT you can sit for the boards for MRI as long as you have your required comps. However, you cannot substitute your Nuc med for RT. It is an advantage to have your RT before acquiring your MRI though it does not usually pay you more money. Most hospitals will not hire anyone that is not ARRT certified in radiology first and the reason is because of the contrast injections. Gadolinium as you know is considered a medication and patients with compromised renal function can have reactions that include death, not to mention the allergic reactions (rare) but do occur. I would suggest to get the OJT training and sit for your MRI boards. Being a NM tech gives you an advantage because you are already ARRT registered. Good luck to you.
