  • BodyWorks

    With BodyWorks, we address one of the fastest growing areas in MR. This all-inclusive library allows you to image abdominal and pelvic anatomy with user flexibility to adapt to different patient types.

    Auto Navigator is GE's solution to combat respiratory motion in abdominal imaging. This free-breathing approach is compatible with multiple pulse sequences including diffusion, PROPELLER MB, MRCP and dynamic T1 imaging.
  • CVWorks

    With our intuitive cardiac techniques, you can assess morphology, flow, function and tissue viability plus gain crucial insights into vascular structure and flow dynamics. CVWorks provides the flexibility to adapt to different patient types with exams that vastly simplify workflow.

    With CVWorks, multi breath-hold imaging can be a thing of the past. Our latest Single shot MDE and Black Blood techniques provide patient-friendly alternatives to uncomfortable breath-holds.

    With our workflow-simplified QuickStep protocols, scanning whole body vasculature can be done in less than 6 minutes. High performance gradients allow bright blood pool and myocardial tissue contrast on Cine FIESTA while preserving spatial resolution.
  • NeuroWorks

    This one-stop solution enables you to imagine brain, spine, vascular and peripheral nerve anatomy with exceptional tissue contrast. These motion-insensitive techniques feature single-click auto alignment, providing the complete neuro solution from scanning to post processing.

    NeuroWorks also includes Cube, our 3D volumetric imaging suite, standard with every system. This application allows you to suppress CSF and either white or gray matter to increase lesion conspicuity.

    PROPELLER MB, our latest PROPELLER enhancement, is a multi-shot approach that preserves tissue contrast regardless of weighting while also reducing motion artifacts. Additionally, this new technique introduces new contrasts such as T1 FSE.
  • OncoWorks

    This extensive library of techniques captures anatomic and morphologic data to uniquely enable oncological assessment of anatomy. OncoWorks includes robust tissue contrast, motion-insensitive, high temporal and spatial resolution imaging.

    3D volumetric imaging with an optimized adiabatic fat suppression, combined with ARC or ASSET, provides high spatial and temporal resolution to capture contrast uptake patterns. The FSPGR Ax Dynamic image shows lesion characteristics generated using AW VS7's positive enhancement map. The T2 PROPELLER image demonstrates small FOV and motion-correction through the prostate.
  • OrthoWorks

    This one-stop solution enables you to image brain, spine, vascular and peripheral nerve anatomy with exceptional tissue contrast. Includes ReadyBrain for single-click auto alignment, enabling patient planning through post processing.

    This extensive library of musculoskeletal imaging techniques enables you to image bone, joint and soft tissue with remarkable tissue contrast.

    OrthoWorks also includes 3D volumetric Cube with proton-density, combined with ASPIR, which enables improved fat suppression uniformity, which is routinely done as three separate 2D scans. With one 3D acquistion and multi planar reformats, Cubes may replace individual 2D scans.
  • PaedWorks

    Pediatric imaging requires exclusive and distinctive imaging techniques that provide ease of use for the user and clinical excellence for your smallest, most fragile patients.

    PaedWorks provides specialized protocols to simply address the needs of your smallest, most fragile patients. Techniques such as PB Navigators combined with PROPELLER MB are used with advanced techniques like diffusing imaging, allowing for patient-friendly, entirely free-breathing exams. Additionally, cardiac exams using single shot MDE provide faster, more reliable results.

    The four images demonstrate dynamic T1 imaging with PB Navigator, which enables the patient to breathe freely while capturing contrast in fast temporal phases. Whole spine evaluation can be obtained simply with routine T2 frFSE imaging.

Diffusion imaging has never been so intelligent

As a standard biomarker in oncology, diffusion imaging plays a critical role in cancer detection and staging. However, because certain anatomical regions are prone to large distortions that limit resolution, the current standard for diffusion imaging has its limitations. SIGNA Premier uses intelligent quantitative solutions and an advanced diffusion package to automatically detect and correct distortion, artifacts and motion. The result is improved co-registration with anatomical information, improved visualization of structures in difficult-to-image areas and higher resolution without any restrictions. This is achieved without any user intervention, additional scan time or complicated workflow.

Elevate

Raise your MR performance to new heights with groundbreaking technology

Designed to overcome barriers, SIGNA™ Artist's cutting edge platform makes it the most versatile, adaptable and powerful 1.5T system available from GE. Now feet-first, whole-body coverage is made easy. Dynamic yet insightful, the SIGNA™ Artist is MR built to work for you.

Total Digital Imaging (TDI)

The SIGNA™ Artist offers startling advances in imaging and a total imaging win with TDI.

GE's Direct Digital Interface (DDI) employs an independent analog-to-digital converter to digitize inputs from each of up to 128 RF channels, eliminating unnecessary noise enhancement.

eMode technology replaces analog blocking circuits with intelligent ultra-fast switches which further expand zero TE imaging capabilities.

16 Channel Shoulder and T/R Knee Coils

The 16 channel shoulder coil is a novel anatomy-adaptive coil design that provides efficient positioning workflow and outstanding patient comfort. The flexibility of the anterior paddle makes it possible to get closer to the patient to maximize SNR and improve imaging outcomes.

The 16 channel transmit/receive (T/R) knee coil delivers high-resolution knee imaging. The T/R design provides improved B1 performance with the potential for higher resolution results, lower SAR and elimination of image backfolding. The larger diameter accommodates a wider range of patients, allows for simple patient setup and elevates patient comfort. The new design supports image acceleration in all directions for faster and enhanced clinical outcomes.

The 70cm wide bore design takes the fear out of MR. The expansive diameter, soft lighting and soothing fans help ease patient anxieties and concerns. The wider table design sits lower to the ground, enabling easier patient positioning. Lightweight and adaptable coil designs conform gently to a patient’s anatomy, elevating the patient experience. SIGNA™ Artist, designed with patient comfort in mind.

eXpress Dockable Table

The SIGNA™ Artist's eXpress table, with a memory foam surface, delivers feet-first or head-first imaging for everyone. With its detachable egress, you never have to worry about how quickly you can exit the MR suite. And with IntelliTouch positioning, just touch the edge of the table to position your patients.
