Versatility that provides the
right balance of capabilities
The Optima MR360 enables you to take MR in the direction that’s best for you.
The Optima MR360 offers a wide range of advanced clinical applications and options to help
you take advantage of specific opportunities for growth. It can extend traditional clinical capability
with a broad range of advanced software applications, such as IDEAL, Cube, and the Inhance suite
of non-contrast MRA applications.
All can help advance your capabilities and reduce exam time while improving reproducibility—and
help achieve success for your business.
Balancing big results
with a small footprint
With lower energy and operating costs, plus built-in space savings, the
environmental footprint and the siting footprint are minimized with the
Optima MR360. And it’s part of GE’s ecomagination family of products.
Energy-efficient. Compared with previous generation systems, the
Optima MR360 reduces annual electricity use by 60,000 kWh per year,
equivalent to the annual electricity use of about 5 U.S. households under
normal operating conditions. This savings can avoid carbon dioxide
emissions of about 35 tons, equivalent to the annual emissions of more
than 7 cars on U.S. roads.
Small siting. With just one system electronics cabinet and optional no
equipment room configuration, the Optima MR360 has a siting footprint
more than 20% smaller than other 1.5T systems. Requiring only 25 square
meters of space, the Optima MR360 fits in the same area as a typical
radiography R&F room.
DTI/Fiber Trak
The Optima MR360 delivers
uncompromised, high-resolution,
20-direction diffusion tensor images.
DTI/Fiber Trak visualizes white matter
trajectories in the brain and generates
directional FA maps, as well as 3D white
matter projections.
The strong gradient performance of the
Optima MR360 enables the ability for
exquisite DTI outputs.
