GE SIGNA^TM Voyager MRI Scanner - 70 cm

Multiply your MR productivity

SIGNA Voyager has a host of features to speed up and simplify imaging. Turbo LAVA/LAVA Flex features enable faster body imaging and up to 47% shorter breath-holds, with multiple phases in a single breath-hold so that each scan is done right the first time. DISCO (Differential Sub-sampling with Cartesian Ordering) technology makes advanced body imaging with MR as simple as CT, enabling simultaneous high spatial and temporal resolution imaging of the entire liver, breast and prostate, and delivering an entire 3D volume in as little as 3 seconds.

SIGNA Voyager’s AutoFlow suite of features makes workflow easier and more efficient than ever:

• READY View: image review and analysis platform that reduces number of clicks through automation and enables advanced visualization of multi-parametric data with ease.
• Auto Protocol Optimization: simplifies and automates breath-hold imaging, making it easier for operators, while enhancing reliability of image quality and exam duration, regardless of patient profile.
• Auto Navigators: delivers real-time robust free breathing respiratory motion compensation to streamline routine and advanced body imaging. They are compatible with DISCO, Turbo LAVA, Turbo LAVA Flex and GE’s entire body imaging suite.
• Pause and Resume: eliminates the need to redo scans or retrace your steps, giving you greater flexibility to respond to patient needs mid-scan. IntelliTouch touch-and-go landmarking, Auto Guidance and GE’s famously simple setup with dual touch screens further enhance workflow efficiency and imaging reliability.

MAGiC (Magnetic Resonance Image Compilation)

For the first time ever in the industry, you can generate multiple image contrasts in a single MRI scan including T1, T2, Inversion Recovery (eg. DIR, PSIR, FLAIR, etc.), and PD contrasts of the brain in a single acquisition.

One scan that can do the work of many, with images acquired in as little as half the time to acquire separate sequences, fully integrated in a seamless workflow.

You can change the contrast of the image by manipulating TR, TE and TI even after the scan is completed and the patient has exited the MR room. MAGiC processing will provide you any desired contrast paving the way to new diagnostic capabilities.

MAGiC even goes beyond standard MR weighted images by processing raw data into parametric T1, T2 and PD maps.

Multiply your ROI

SIGNA Voyager is designed to multiply your ROI to remarkable levels. With one of the smallest mechanical footprints of any wide bore 1.5T MR system in the industry, the SIGNA Voyager substantially lowers setup cost. And with one of the lowest power consumption levels in the industry, it ensures you keep operating costs surprisingly low.

Outclass with exceptional image quality

Whether it is leveraging a large, homogeneous FOV to visualize the entire abdominal cavity, or focusing on the smallest lesions in challenging areas of anatomy, the SIGNA Voyager delivers uncompromised results. Designed with one of the most homogeneous magnets in the industry, the SIGNA Voyager gives you the freedom to choose the appropriate field of view (FOV) for your imaging.

Experience the unique advantages of Total Digital Imaging (TDI) with SIGNA Voyager. TDI helps deliver consistently sharper images than conventional MR systems with higher SNR, superior homogeneity and uniformity. TDI consists of 3 components;

• Digital Surround Technology (DST) combines the superior SNR and sensitivity of the high-density surface coils with the superior homogeneity and deeper signal penetration of the integrated RF body coil, to deliver richer, sharper, higher quality images.
• Direct Digital Interface (DDI) employs a separate analog-to-digital converter to capture and digitize every input from each of up to 65 RF channels, to vastly improve SNR.
• Digital Micro Switching (DMS) technology replaces analog blocking circuits with intelligent Micro-Electro-Mechanical Switches (MEMS), to enable ultra-fast coil switching times for further expansion of zero TE imaging capabilities.

SIGNA Voyager includes novel Ultra High Efficiency (UHE) Gradient technology, a leap forward in the gradient technology curve, generating shorter TR and TE values to deliver speed and exceptional image quality.

GE’s TDI Coil Suite delivers remarkable image quality with a patient-centered design set of coils. It includes embedded posterior array, high-density Head & Neck array, anterior array with extended anatomical coverage and other high-performing flexible and dedicated MSK coils.

The new standard is extraordinary

New SIGNAWorks productivity platform redefines productivity across the breadth of core imaging techniques with solutions. The SIGNAWorks standard applications portfolio is an extensive set of high quality and efficient imaging capabilities that enables you to achieve desired outcomes across your entire practice area.

The SIGNA Voyager comes pre-loaded with the SIGNAWorks standard applications as a fully integrated solution. It’s value-added technology that’s upgradeable and can be customized further, giving you the flexibility to add applications to suit the needs of your growing practice.

SIGNAWorks takes full advantage of TDI (Total Digital Imaging), further advancing diagnostics and quickening throughput, while simultaneously helping improve patient outcomes and your ROI.
