Software Reduces MRI Breath Holding Up to 50%

By MedImaging International staff writers
Posted on 13 May 2013
New software decreases patient magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) breath-hold time up to 50% without surrendering image resolution, enabling ultra-fast, high-quality three-dimensional (3D) T1 imaging.

Siemens Healthcare (Erlangen, Germany) recently reported the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently cleared the company’s CAIPIRINHA (controlled aliasing in volumetric parallel imaging results in higher acceleration) software as part of Siemens’ syngo MR D13A software package for parallel magnetic resonance (MR) imaging.

The software helps enable patients with breath-holding difficulties to cut the amount of time they hold their breath without sacrificing imaging resolution or contrast.

Siemens’ CAIPIRINHA software enables acquisition of better quality 3D volumetric interpolated breath-hold sequence (VIBE) T1 images using higher acceleration factors. CAIPIRINHA software will be included as standard with Siemens’ D13A software for Magnetom Aera 1.5 Tesla and Magnetom Skyra 3T MRI systems; it will be available with Siemens’ B19 software as an upgrade for Siemens’ Magnetom Avanto 1.5T and MagnetomVerio 3T systems.
