MR View&GO - Compose/Combine (Numaris X - XA60)
This job aid, reviews workflow steps to compose or combine images with multiple table moves.
Applicable for Numaris X XA60 software and up.
MR View&GO – Compose/Combine Numaris X Job Aid syngo MAGNETOM MR Systems with Numaris X software Perform composing to create composite images for sagittal and coronal images. There are several algorithms available that are based on the image type. (e.g., Spine, Angio, and Maximum Inten- sity Projection (MIP) images). 1. Load a Study that uses the Tim Planning Suite (i.e., with multiple table moves) into MR View&GO. 2. In the Viewing area of MR View&GO, select all Series for Compose/Combine (Ctrl + left-click). 3. Favorite Tools area, select Compose/Combine icon. Compose is for the Sagittal/Coronal planes. Favorite Tools X • 3D • Combine is for the Axial plane. Show in TimeCurve ADC & Compose/ 3D value Combine 4. In the Create New Composition window, confirm that All Series selected are loaded into the Selected Series area. If not, left-click on the sequence needed and click on the Arrow to move to the Selected Se- ries list.

Select the Composing Algorithm from the drop-down list. • Spine is based on bone structure, for composing spine images. • Angio is based on vessel structure, to compose an overview of vessels. • MIP is based on composing Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) images. • Adaptive is based on elastic matching, to correct B0-induced inhomogeneities in image areas beyond the magnetic homogeneity volume.
