ParaVision 360
Focusing on consistent quantification, ParaVision 360 makes scanning even more intuitive, while maintaining the full flexibility that Bruker users praise. The enlarged MRI sequence portfolio, which is exclusive to Bruker, and the powerful image data evaluation functions lead to maximum proficiency in scanning and analysis, while the simplicity and uniformity across the range of instrumentation allows operators to put their focus on their research.
ParaVision 360 V3.6 is now available
Highlights from the newest features of the 3.6 release:
AI Denoising
- Non-generative denoising approach of complex data
- Increased image quality
- Higher throughput enabled via reduced scan times
- Improved quantitative results and more precise fits
- Full freedom to choose denoising level while maintaining original data
Cardiac T1 Mapping
- Look-Locker based inversion-recovery segmented FLASH
- Double gating for respiration and heart-beat to ensure high image quality
- Time stamps are co-registered with MR signals to obtain correct inversion times
Efficiently Designed Workflows and Increased Scan Protocols Portfolio
- Improved workflow for PET/CT with revised logic for protocols and scan programs
- Start scan time as default image decay correction in PET scans for higher accuracy
- Fast, T2-weighted 3D, isotropic in vivo RAREvfl protocols for an expanded range of instruments
Highlights from previous versions of ParaVision 360
Cross-modality Highlights
