| 6-1.5T MAGNETS, DIFFERING GRADIENTS |
I assume that you mean a t2 fat suppressed sequence. Differing gradient strengths have only an indirect effect on these images. The fat saturation sequences require additional pulses which take time to execute; stronger gradient systems can execute these pulses faster.
If you see different results, it can be caused by a number of factors; if you can describe the differences, that would be helpful. Generally speaking, the quality of the magnet homogeneity makes a big difference. If the small FOV scans (wrist) look different from magnet to magnet, that's probably not the cause.
You should ask your MRI applications specialist about this, and pay attention to the TE and bandwidth. Are the FOV and number of steps the same?

What parameter, if any, can compensate between magnets of equal field strength but very different gradient strengths? A T2 FAT sequence on one magnet can look very different on another magnet using same parameters.

| please help me for find user manual siemens avento |
i agree, that you should try to contact siemens directly. if they cannot help you i have an extra copy that i might be able to sent you for a small fee. based on my experience,the manuals really are NOT much help as, performing the required actions needed to complete scans are not fully outlined in the manuals, that usally comes from applications training from the manufacturer. it sounds like you purchased a used system with no applications support. siemens systems are fantastic mri scanners. but you are going to need applications help. i can offer assistance in this area if you would like . i am a chief mri technologist here in ny, and have 23 years mri scanning experience.i have 5 years siemens avanto expertise, performing body, msk, neuro, angio and breast mri and biopsy experience. you can contact me at my email mcl1956m@aol.com

| Muscle shading in 3T Images |
This artifact is known as the dielectric effect. It is a phenomena to all magnets. At 1.5T the dielectric effect is at 60cm so when we scan at a FOV of 40 or less we don't see it. At 3t the dielectric effect is reduced to 30cm so we now see it when using a FOV of 30 or more. There is no way to get rid of it that I know of and you will see an increase with patients with more magnetic suseptibility (ie. patients with ascities, and pregnant patient). You could try using Surface Coil Intensity Correction (SCIC) and it will help to even out the extreme dark and light in your image. Some vendors will suggest using a Fat Sat pad to help reduce this artifact. I have tried it with little success.
Looking at your image, it looks like you were scanning on a GE 3T HDX. I hope that the vendors will have a fix for this artifact soon. For right now though we are just dealing with it. I hope this helps.
