Software options glossary

Bloodsupp
Blood suppression.
Cine
Images usually of moving anatomy scanned and arrange for playback rapidly in movie format.
ConnectPro (HIS/RIS)
Provides DICOM modality work list connectivity to hospital or radiology information system.
DW EPI
Diffusion Weighted Echo Planer Imaging.
eOM
Electronic Order Management, the Oracle order management system.
Fast cine
Fast gated multi-phase images of the heart that show the heart as it contracts and expands during cardiac cycle in a movie format.
FTP
Short for File Transfer Protocol, the protocol used to exchange files between computer systems.
IVI
Interactive Vascular Imaging.
iDRIVE Pro
Interactive imaging uses a fast GRE pulse sequence and a new user interface to acquire continuous 2D images at a high frame rate and provide on-image navigation. Not available on systems with a single i860 AP.
Multi-Nuclear Spectroscopy
Provides access to additional spectroscopy PSD that may be used in proton mode.
MS/MA
Multi-Slice/Multi-Angle Oblique.
Sgdperf
SGD enhancements, which increase, slew rates and duty cycles for higher resolution thin slice imaging.
SmartPrep
Automated triggering for contrast enhanced MRA.
SmartPrep2000
Provides SmartPrep automated table motion.
Spectroscopy/PROBE
Single voxel proton spectroscopy with PROBE-S and PROBE-P.
Probe2000 Upgrade
