Haste and Rare sequences
HASTE and RARE are developed only bay Siemens?
Has every other head office (Philips, GE, Toshiba, etc) these two sequences with these names or with other names?
I need to understand it, because I have to "edit" an important document, where I can't quote any specific MR producer!!
Could I perhaps say "sequences as HASTE" or "sequences type RARE"??
Thank you.

Look for optimized protocols on the Philips Netforum Community. The webaddress is http://netforum.medical.philips.com/. Its free and has plenty of protocols and examcards.

flat board/insert
Good Day Everyone:
Our Imaging Canter has a new MRI unit (Philips 1.5 T Achieva) that we would
like to use for Radiation Oncology patients. The carbon fibre flat table top
as we use in CT effects the MRI image quality. A few companies I have
contacted do not know who makes flat table tops for MRI.
I would appreciate a note from current Radiation Oncology MRI users if they
know the manufacturer of proper flat tops or if they have found a way
"around" the problem.

Help Please
Dear Mr. Kareem Badr:

I am flattered by your comments and appreciate your interest in our exciting MRI field.

To put a simple answer to your question, "are MRI units specialized for certain applications?" Usually the answer would be no.

Imaging techniques like Cardiac, Angiography, etc. are options that can be purchased on MRI systems. From a purely sales and marketing perspective MRI system are designed with a basic package that can perform the standard MRI imaging techniques. From there, additional packages and options can be added to "upgrade" the capabilities of the scanner.

While there are a few "niche" scanners on the market that are limited to one, or to just a few techniques, for example breast imaging. Most scanners are capable, with enhancements and upgrades, of performing most imaging techniques.

Now with that said, even though all scanners are capable of running most imaging techniques, it is also important to note that some scanners may be better at a particular technique, while maybe not as good at another technique. Personal opinions and biases can create heated debates as to which systems are better for each technique. As with any other modality, there are positives and negatives with all of the scanners.

Finally, to answer your question on applications and the units that can perform the techniques, this would be a long, detailed list. What I would suggest is that you visit the websites of the major MRI manufacturers. All of the information you would need will be at these websites. I have provided website addresses of the major OEM's and additional manufacturers that design and sell MRI systems below:

1) GE Medical: http://www.gehealthcare.com/usen/index.html
2) Siemens Medical: http://www.medical.siemens.com
3) Toshiba Medical: http://medical.toshiba.com/
4) Philips Medical: http://www.medical.philips.com/index.html
5) Hitachi Medical: http://www.hitachimed.com/
6) Fonar: http://www.fonar.com/
7) Aurora Imaging: http://www.auroramri.com/
8) Magnevu: http://www.mri4ra.com/
9) Odin Medical: http://www.odinmed.com/newSite/index.html
10) Millennium: http://www.millennium.ca/medical/medical.html
11) ONI Medical: http://www.onicorp.com/website/index.htm
12) Esaote: http://www.esaote.com/products/MRI/products1.htm
13) DigiMRI: http://www.digimri.com/
14) Bruker: http://www.bruker.de/

Good luck in your research, and once again I appreciate your interest.
