The SIGNA PET/MR system performs PET and MR scans simultaneously, enabling customers to schedule a single study. The PET component boasts high sensitivity, offering lower radiation doses for radiation-sensitive patients like children, or faster scans with the same dose for patients who have difficulty remaining still for the duration of the scan. The pioneering Time-of-Flight PET technology provides crisp images, while Q.Clear reconstruction delivers 2x improvement in image quality. The system is also equipped with a premium 3.0T MR and AIR Recon DL, which enables reduced scan time without compromising image quality. Additionally, the SIGNA PET/MR is integrated with AIR coils, designed to reduce attenuation artifacts in PET images caused by the coils themselves. These soft, conformable, blanket-like coils are also faster to set up, helping to improve workflow and reducing technologist exposure to patients injected with radioactive isotopes. To address image artifacts caused by patient motion, MotionFree Brain¹ on PET and PROPELLER on MR are integrated motion correction technologies that can reduce image artifacts from non-compliant or subtly moving patients.
