INNOVATIVE ATLAS MATRIX COIL CONCEPT
With the Atlas matrix coil concept the number of coil elements and number of receiver channels are optimized with the maximum scan FoV. A 50 cm longitudinal scan FoV can incorporate 32 elements which can be fed to a 16-channel receiver system for improved SNR or to a 32-channel received system for high parallel imaging factors.
Easy coil handling
- Sliding spine coil, integrated in the couch top
- Light-weight, flexible body coil (up to 3 parallel coils)
- Splitable head coil with optimized attachments
Versatile coil combinations
- Automatic coils selection (AS compass)
- 9 coil connectors on the couch
High SPEEDER factors
- Up to 32 elements in the FoV
Multisized elements
- Anatomically optimized elements
- Small center elements for high resolution
- Large peripheral elements for high sensitivity
OCTAVE MATRIX COIL CONCEPT
Based on the innovative Atlas matrix coil concept Canon developed an economic version using the similar conceptual matrix design approach. This became the Octave matrix coil concept in which the number of elements was reduced without compromising image quality. For body imaging, the Octave spine coil can be combined with the 4-channel Flex coil or with the Atlas body coil for larger coverage.
Octave SPEEDER head/neck coil
- 11 elements
- 22 cm inner diameter
- Tiltable with optional wedge
Octave SPEEDER spine coil
- Sliding spine coil, integrated in the couchtop
- 12 elements
- 47 x 78 cm
- 120 cm scanable range for CTL spine when combined with the Octave head coil

MR CARDIO
When the MRI scanner is equipped with 32 receiver channels, the 32-element cardiac coil can be used. With the small octagonal elements it is a very high density coil enabling the use of high SPEEDER factors, improving temporal resolution.
