Introducing MR-Touch
MR Elastography for non-invasive,
holistic liver assessment.
Patients who suffer from chronic liver diseases such as
fibrosis and cirrhosis often require ongoing observation
by a gastroenterologist. This can entail invasive proce-
dures that don’t always provide a full picture of the liver.
The new MR-Touch, developed by GE with the Mayo
Clinic, approaches liver exams by using acoustic waves
to identify variations in tissue stiffness. This provides an
Elastrogram, an entire view of the liver. The Elastrogram
enables radiologists and gastroenterologists to monitor
a patient frequently and to help them make informed
decisions about treatment. Moreover, it opens a new
opportunity to provide an innovative service to your
existing referral community and beyond.
