'MRI system is not an expensive equipment anymore.
ENCORE developed by ISOL Technology is a low cost MRI system with the ad vantages like of the 1.0T MRI scanner. Developed specially for the overseas market, the ENCORE is gaining popularity in the domestic market by medium sized hospitals.
Due to the optimum RF and Gradient application technology. ENCORE enables to obtain high resolution imaging and 2D/3D Angio images which was only possible in high field MR systems.'
- Less consumption of the helium gas due to the ultra-lightweight magnet specially designed and manufactured for ISOL.
- Cost efficiency MR system due to air cooling type (equivalent to permanent magnetic).
- Patient processing speed of less than 20 minutes.'

The company is a leading manufacturer and developer of magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI) scanners.
The Patient Friendly MRI Company, formed in 1978, is engaged in the business of inventing, manufacturing, selling and servicing magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI) scanners. FONAR is the oldest MRI company in the world. After receiving hundreds of millions in a windfall from protecting their MRI patents, they made a MRI scanner that no other MRI manufacturer has. One that the patient stands in and they call Indomitable, the Stand-Up MRI. Patients like it because it is the least claustrophobic, most comfortable MRI on the market. Doctors like it because of its superior image quality and for the first time, the patient can be scanned in the weight-bearing position, or the position of pain or symptom. In October of 2004, the company changed the product name of the Stand-Up MRI to the Upright MRI. Fonar introduced the first "open" MRI scanner in 1980 and is the originator of the iron-core nonsuperconductive and permanent magnet technology.
MRI Scanners:
- 0.6T:
•
QUAD™ 12000 - Its 19-inch gap and Whisper Gradients™ make it extraordinarily spacious, quiet and comfortable. With its signal to noise ad vantage of 0.6 T and its comprehensive array of Organ-Specific™ receiver coils, the QUAD™ 12000 provides high-speed, high resolution and high contrast scanning.
Product Specification
•
OR 360°™ - cleared for marketing by the FDA in March 2000, 360° access to the patient. A dual-purpose scanner, it can be used for conventional diagnostic scanning when not in surgical mode.

The use of MR spectroscopy for acquiring functional activation of the brain. There are two possible approaches:
In the first, localized spectra of brain water are acquired and subtle changes in these spectra reflect the biophysical water environment. Changes in T2 due to deoxyhaemoglobin concentration may be detected in this way.
The disad vantages of poor spatial resolution are to some extent offset by the high signal to noise ratio SNR of the spectroscopic data.
An alternative approach is to use MR spectroscopy directly to detect metabolites that are altered by brain activation. These include lactate and glucose. Such experiments have inherently poor spatial and temporal resolution, but do give a direct indication of the metabolic response of the brain to functional activation. | | | | | |

Short name: Gd-BOPTA, generic name: Gadobenate dimeglumine
A paramagnetic MRI contrast agent (small molecular weight Gd-chelate) with 0.5 and 0.25 molar concentration.
The albumin-mediated relaxation enhancement may result in ad vantages
for Gd-BOPTA over Gd-DTPA and other gadolinium agents in poorly vascularized, small, or lesions with low enhancement and in tumors with high concentrations of albumin.
The substance is excreted partly by the kidneys (75-90%), partly by the biliary system (10-25%). The uptake in the liver is about 5% in humans. It is bolus injectable.
