Shortening Prostate MRI Exams

The FDA in January cleared the noninvasive SEEit prostate MR imaging solution from Siemens. Powered by syngo MR E11 software architecture, SEEit enables users of Siemens’ Magnetom Aera 1.5T and Magnetom Skyra 3T MRI systems to perform a routine prostate exam in just 10 minutes without using an endorectal coil, which can cause patient discomfort. Siemens’ Direct RF and high-density coil technology Tim 4G – coupled with its Resolve diffusion technology – deliver the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and resolution that enable users to perform these examinations using only the company’s new Body 30/60 surface coil.
