MyoMaps
Add a new layer of pixel-based information to your diagnoses.
MyoMaps1 offers the possibility of acquiring pixel-based quantitative myocardial tissue characteristics. Robustly, efficiently, and on the fly.
MyoMaps has the clinical potential to help you assess myocardial pathologies with new information, such as:
- Detection of global, diffuse and sometimes subtle myocardial pathologies (T1 Map).
- Depiction of cardiac edema (T2 Map).
- Detection of iron overload, guiding cardiovascular therapy - starting earlier and more efficiently (T2* Map).
