While digital cameras are often defined by megapixels, a camera’s ability to
produce clear undistorted images relies more heavily on the quality of the lens
and its ability to capture the light. A poorly designed lens cannot overcome the
best performing camera.
The same holds true in MR. With the latest surge in wide bore 3.0T systems, the
significance of homogeneity and its impact on image quality has never been
more important.
No other parameter influences the quality of fat-saturation, anatomical
coverage and resolution performance more. Any compromises made to
the magnet field homogeneity and you’re unlikely to see the benefits of
3.0T wide bore. That’s why the Discovery MR750w 3.0T magnet supports
uncompromised homogeneity ensuring excellent resolution across the
entire image.
