LOCALISER/ SCOUT. HOW TO SPEED THINGS UP

  • Localiser/ scout is often a forgotten topic. Why is this important? Because this is the very first sequence you run in a protocol, and it should be efficient and precise at all time. I will break down some tips and tricks how to speed this up. Hopefully, the results will be either equal or better localisers than you have today within a shorter scantime.
    Thanks for watching and following, hope you find this video interesting and valuable

    Great tips Bac! Many techs think of the loc as a throw away sequence that doesn't matter but it's very important. I would also recommend a short video on using the loc to check positioning and coil placement.

    Where did you pull the Haste 2 step from? I'm on a Siemens Magnetom 1.5 Aera, but our software is older. Our Whole Spine doesn't include that option.

    • @Nguyen_MRI

      Just custom made from our routinely protocol. Can find these haste from abdomen in the siemens tree. And just optimise then.

    I have heard that using a flash or SE based localizer will give you a better SAR calculation for the rest of the exam vs. the HASTE. Any truth to that?

    • @Nguyen_MRI
      @Nguyen_MRI  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Interesting. I haven’t heard of it and haven’t been meeting any problems regarding sar whenever using haste. However, I think its more important how your sequences are optimised throughout your exam. Where did you hear this? I mean have you been experience this?

    • @Nguyen_MRI
      @Nguyen_MRI  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ok thanks. Really interesting though. Nevertheless, pushing haste as original from siemens tree will enhance sar issue. So it need to be modify from my opinion due to sar.

    • @mihaimoldo
      @mihaimoldo ปีที่แล้ว

      Localizer on siemens are a flash based. If you go in Protocol-part 1 (or 2) you see the name of the sequence is flash.
      I've noticed when using haste loc instead of Flash you sometimes get the SAR pop-up. I think it's due to the lower TR and the flip angle , I didn't reduce it at first like Bac did.

    I have a question that is a little unrelated please. Why is it that some patient seems to make the SAR levels go up. I had a patient for an L spine who told me on a previous scan he got very warm. While doing his spine i noticed that his sar levels were getting higher than with regular patients.
