Multi-parametric prostate and whole-body oncology MRI exams
In multi-parametric MRI, the multiple contrast mechanisms provide more
information about lesions that can help in diagnosis. Multi-parametric MRI can
include T1-weighted, T2-weighted, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), DCE and
spectroscopy. UCLH uses Ingenia 3.0T for multi-parametric MRI exams.

Excellent, fast and robust fat suppression in head-neck MRI
In a challenging area like the head and neck, the use of TSE sequences is usually
preferred for obtaining good fat suppression, which is why Dr. Casselman (AZ St.-Jan, Bruges, Belgium) looked at use of mDIXON TSE in that area.

Acquisition in less than 8 minutes for five most common MRI exams
UMC Utrecht developed fast Ingenia 1.5T ExamCards for the five most common exams, each requiring less than 8 minutes scan time. This is a scan time reduction of over 50% compared to their standard protocols, and still satisfies the image quality criteria defined by the ACR Clinical Image Quality Guide.

Ingenia 3.0T is a breakthrough in image quality for CMR
The German Heart Institute Berlin (Berlin, Germany) was a pioneer in using
CMR in a clinical setting, and now applies CMR to a broad range of clinical
indications in about 150 patients a month using Ingenia 3.0T.
