GE SIGNA Pioneer’s MAGiC: one-and-done MRI designed to acquire images in as little as one-third the time (http://gecommunity.on.arena.ne.jp/MAGiC/tetr.html) For the first time ever with MAGiC, clinicians will have the ability to generate multiple image contrasts in a single MRI scan including T1-W, T2-W, STIR, T1-W FLAIR, T2-W FLAIR and PD-W images of the brain in a single acquisition. Another innovation is that the contrast of images can be changed even after completing the scan by simply moving the cursor on the MAGiC interface to change acquisition parameters such as TR, TE and TI. MAGiC enables one scan that can do the work of many and can be processed in many ways – an industry first. MAGiC, the result of a collaboration with SyntheticMR AB, is one-and-done imaging that could provide significant productivity benefits. With MAGiC, a single scan that delivers six contrasts can be completed in as little as one-third the total time taken to acquire each contrast separately using conventional techniques. This time saved could potentially allow clinicians to scan one more patient per hour, every hour of every day.
