High-resolution, in-phase and out-of-phase
imaging 
in just one breath-hold

In- and out-of-phase  gradient  echo  imaging in abdominal
MRI can help identify fatty infiltration,   focal fatty   sparing,
liver lesions, and other conditions. 3D Dual Echo 
is a new sequence that  produces  in-phase and out-of-phase
images in the same acquisition within  a single   breath-hold.
It ensures virtually perfect registration between
corresponding in- and out-of-phase  images every  time, and
greatly enhances small
lesion detection and visualization  giving you uncompromised
image quality.


Greater confidence
Consistently   obtain   higher-resolution  images to  improve
diagnostic  confidence. We   Acquire   perfectly  co-registered 
images virtually every time for optimal contrast.
SNR  Increases  up to  30% (compared to the  2D  equivalent
technique) for higher spatial resolution.
Interslice gaps  Reduces  for  uncompromised  small   lesion
detection and visualization.


One acquisition
Acquires  images in one  breath-hold  versus two  to increase
productivity and throughput.


Easier exams
Potentially  reduces  breath-hold failures,  slice mismatches, 
retakes and exam difficulty.
Helps to shorten scan times for critically ill patients.
