GE Healthcare Brivo MR355 1.5T - Manual (Page 4)

The new embedded coil technology used in the Brivo MR355 helps provide consistent,
high-quality results and greater technologist confidence:
• 8-channel coil system for brain, neck, spine, and body exams
• 12-element posterior array embedded in the patient table
• Automatic element selection for spine exams
New Express Coil
helps optimize the
scanning experience:
• Simplifies workflow
• Streamlines scanning time
• Proximity of coils preserves
signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
• Reduces handling and
positioning of bulky coils
between scans
The Brivo MR355 is a world-class 1.5T system that brings great MR value within
reach—without compromising the scanning range and high-field quality the
world expects from GE Healthcare.
• The same proven, highly homogeneous magnet that is used throughout the
GE 1.5T product line, including the Discovery ™ MR450
• Uncompromised 8-channel RF and 33/100 gradient performance
• 48-cm FOV magnet provides a broader view of spines, body images, and
vascular exams in a single acquisition
• Advanced software applications provide high-definition imaging capability
• OpTix RF digital receiver is an exclusive optical RF system that increases
signal clarity and maximizes signal intensity to produce clean, crisp images
Uncompromised 1.5T image quality. Within your reach.
Express Coil
design achieves
outstanding coverage and depth of
penetration. Coil is positioned directly
beneath the cradle—minimizing the
distance between the patient and the
coil elements to maintain high SNR.
Enables high-quality spinal cord imaging,
even with larger patients.
GE Healthcare was
the first to introduce 1.5T
MR scanners and continues
to be a world leader in MR
technology. This expertise helps
bring to market a value-priced
MR system that makes it easier
than ever to produce high-
definition images.
