MR Scanner

The CNI scanner is a GE Discovery MR750. It's currently running ESE version 23.1 v02 (the GE operating system). To compile EPIC psd's for the scanner, we have a dedicated server with the necessary software environment installed. Just contact us for details.

Coils

  • Standard GE bird-cage head coil
  • InVivo 8-channel head array (similar to this one)
  • Nova Medical 32-channel head coil (interior coil dimensions - 18.5 cm width, 21 cm length, 24 cm height to nose bridge, 21 cm height to forehead)
  • Nova Medical 16-channel visual array. This is similar to the Nova 32-channel coil, but with the front half removed to allow a completely unobstructed field of view for visual studies. (interior coil dimensions - 18.5 cm width, 21 cm length, 10 cm height)

Extras

  • Tektronix TDS2024B4 channel oscilloscope to debug pulse sequences.
  • Custom foam padding for positioning subjects.

MR Simulator

The CNI has an MR Simulator available for pre-scan training.

Physiological Monitoring

In addition to the respiration and pulse oximetry integrated with the GE scanner, the CNI also has a MedRad Veris for additional physiological measures, such as ECG.
