Swoop Sequences
We invite you to learn more about Swoop T1, T2, FLAIR, and DWI sequences.
T1 (Standard) / T1 (Gray/White)
Resolution: 1.6 × 1.6 × 5 mm
Acquisition type; orientations: 3D; Axial, Sagittal, Coronal
Kspace trajectory: Cartesian, weighted coverage
Image reconstruction: Noise suppression, advanced reconstruction, phase-sensitive parallel imaging reconstruction, navigator drift correction
Post-processing: Geometric distortion correction, intensity correction, advanced denoising
Additional info (T1 Gray/White): Similar to T1-weighted gradient-echo-based imaging sequences on higher field MRIs. Optimized for visualizing extra-axial pathology.
T2 / Fast T2
Resolution: T2: 1.5 × 1.5 × 5 mm; Fast T2: 1.6 × 1.6 × 5 mm
Acquisition type; orientations: 3D; Axial, Sagittal, Coronal
Kspace trajectory: Cartesian, weighted coverage
Image reconstruction: Noise suppression, advanced reconstruction, phase-sensitive parallel imaging reconstruction, navigator drift correction
Post-processing: Geometric distortion correction, intensity correction, advanced denoising
Additional info: Fast T2 shortens the scan time by approximately 50%.
Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR)
Resolution: 1.6 × 1.6 × 5 mm
Acquisition type; orientations: 3D; Axial, Sagittal, Coronal
Kspace trajectory: Cartesian, weighted coverage
Image reconstruction: Noise suppression, advanced reconstruction, phase-sensitive parallel imaging reconstruction, navigator drift correction
Post-processing: Geometric distortion correction, intensity correction, advanced denoising
Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI) and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) Maps
Resolution: 2.4 × 2.4 × 6 mm
Acquisition type; orientations: 3D; Axial
Associated options: ADC mapping, b-value = 900 s/mm2
Kspace trajectory: Cartesian, weighted coverage
Image reconstruction: Noise suppression, NUFFT, conjugate gradient SENSE reconstruction, navigator phase correction, navigator drift correction, motion rejection and rescanning
Post-processing: Geometric distortion correction, intensity correction
