MR scan procedures are tailored to research study / clinical trial requirements and maintained in a research protocol database. Study subjects are screened (for MRI safety) and scanned by R.T.(R)(MR) certified research technologists on an FDA-approved 3T MRI system. This single scanner provides consistency for a longitudinal study of subjects. Regular scanner QA and qualification phantom scans may be provided per study requirements.
Our team has expertise in scan protocol design and is available for technical consultation throughout the study. Research MR exams are archived on a Health Information Technology and Services (HITS) Research PACs and can be made available to investigators in a variety of de-identified image formats, including DICOM, NIFTI and MHD.
