This coil has been designed to accommodate intubated patients (on a ventilator). A 40 – 100% SNR improvement is seen with this coil compared to a standard OEM coil, without compromising uniformity. Due to its small size hi-resolution imaging is possible over the neonatal brain without running into SAR issues. The enhanced SNR and uniformity makes the Neonate Head Coil ideal for volumetric imaging (such as MRI, MRA, DWI and MRS) of the brain and intracranial vasculature of premature and term newborns. The Neonate Head Coils are compatible with 1.5T and 3.0T scanners from major OEM’s.
