Aurora Optimized Shim

​

Our proprietary shimming process recognizes differences in breast anatomy and adjusts the magnetic field homogeneity accordingly, resulting in customized breast imaging for each individual patient. This complex, second-order shim was developed specifically for breast imaging. It facilitates high-quality fat suppression for both breasts and axillae, and helps reduce hot spots.

 

Aurora Optimized Shim provides:

• optimal high-quality fat suppression for both breasts

• improved efficiency of data acquisition

• a greater reduction in hot spots

• a better visualization of the axillae in the same acquisition as bilateral breast studies

• a large, homogeneous, elliptical imaging area
