SyntheticMR Delivers MAGiC to GE Healthcare
STOCKHOLM, December 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
A customized version of SyntheticMR AB's SyMRI(R) IMAGE software is now introduced by
GE Healthcare, a strategic partner to SyntheticMR, under the name MAGiC. MAGiC is
introduced at RSNA together with the new magnetic resonance (MR) system SIGNA Pioneer from
GE Healthcare.
MAGiC (Magnetic Resonance Image Compilation) is a customized version of SyntheticMR's
SyMRI IMAGE software, a breakthrough productivity enhancement that allows clinicians to
capture multiple image contrasts in a single scan. A single scan generates quantitative
T1, T2, STIR, T1 FLAIR, T2 FLAIR and PD weighted images in as little as one-third the
total time it would take to acquire each contrast separately. The time saved could allow
clinicians to scan one more patient per hour, every hour of every day. After the images
have been acquired, the contrast can be adjusted by manipulating TR, TE and TI values,
helping to ensure that no details are missed.
GE Healthcare introduces MAGiC together with the SIGNA Pioneer 3.0T magnetic resonance
(MR) system at RSNA (Radiological Society of North America), the world's largest radiology
conference, taking place in Chicago, USA, 30 November - 5 December 2014. SIGNA Pioneer and
MAGiC are 510(k) pending at the U.S. FDA.
SyntheticMR also offers SyMRI NEURO, which provides fully automatic brain segmentation
based on the SyMRI IMAGE and MAGiC data. For more information please visit

with GE Healthcare as well as the press release from GE Healthcare.
