Qualitative evaluation of MR images can be inconsistent and may leave many questions:

  • Hyperintense lesion observed. Indication of disease?
  • Grade? Infiltration into surrounding tissue?
  • Prognosis?

MR Fingerprinting facilitates decision making based on digital tissue data. Dedicated MR Fingerprinting acquisition for rapid and robust quantitative T1 and T2 tissue maps of the brain.

Quantification of tissue properties enable robust, reproducible, results - inter-scanner, and in-vivo - for precision medicine.2
