Vet-MR: The Reasons For Success

Thanks to the open design, the animal’s handling is extremely easy, and the operator gets familiar with the use after a short training on site. The Windows® operator interface allows also an intuitive approach for the operator and it features appropriate vet terms.

Superb Soft Tissue Visualization

MRI is recognized to be the method of choice for soft tissue imaging. Vet-MR include a complete set of receiving coils providing high image quality for the different anatomic areas. Our dedicated coils are tailored to specific anatomy for the best image quality.

Dedicated Software

Vet-MR speaks the veterinary language. The system has been developed in close collaboration with veterinary doctors, in fact it features correct vet terminology and image orientation, that together with an appropriate patient set up scheme yield an easy exam management flow.

Full Connectivity

Vet-MR is fully DICOM and offers smart solutions for connectivity and teleradiology, featuring the standard Dicom classes.

Service Online

The remote service program Aras Win, specially developed for the Esaote MRI systems, enables service technicians to directly connect to any Esaote MRI unit for immediate check-up and troubleshooting.

Real Time Positioning

Pet positioning is extremely fast by using the real time feature that continuously visualizes the anatomy location (MRI fluoroscopy); afterwards a localizer (scout) scan is performed contemporarily in the three orthogonal directions.

Pet Monitoring

With Vet-MR ease of monitoring and accessibility to the patient reduces risk during the exam; furthermore, the specific design of Vet MR allows for use of existing anesthesia equipment.

VET-MR Examinations

Vet-MR provides a wide range of preprogrammed protocols that are optimized for Vet purpose and tested at research sites, but it offers also the possibility to create customized protocols, according to specific clinical needs.

Siting

VET-MR: Easy MRI

Vet-MR has been developed as an "in-office MRI", which means that it can be easily installed in any hospital or private practice. Minimum space requirements are 18 m²:

A Specially Developed Modular RF Shielding Is Available, Avoiding Costly And Time Consuming Construction Works.
Thanks To Its Very Low Power Consumption (1 kW) The Scanner Can Be Connected To A Standard Power Outlet (220V Or 110V).

Vet-MR is ideal for installation in small or space limited practices. Vet-MR is provided with a specially designed and easy to install dedicated RF cage. Its innovative design, which makes use of existing illumination and air-conditioning, makes it possible to install in a standard room (4 X 4,5 m minimum).
