    Philips Compressed SENSE saves you valuable time


    Speed up your MRI examinations with Philips Compressed SENSE. This breakthrough acceleration technique shortens single MRI sequences and full MRI examinations.

    What is Compressed SENSE? It is the Philips implementation of the compressed sensing principle and combines it with dS SENSE, our industry leading parallel imaging method. Compressed sensing is a signal processing technique built on the fact that signals contain redundant information. In MR this technique is used to reconstruct a full image from severely under-sampled data (in k-space) while maintaining virtually equivalent image quality.

    The time which can be gained with Compressed SENSE can allow you to increase productivity and diagnostic confidence, and enhance patient comfort at the same time.

    MR case study

    Accelerating imaging in clinical trials 

    Dr Kieren Hollingsworth and Dr David Higgins present the benefits of accelerating imaging in clinical trials, without compromising on image quality.  At Newcastle University, Dr Hollingsworth’s clinical research includes two patient populations that particularly benefit from scan acceleration; those with muscular dystrophy and those with type 2 diabetes. By improving patient motivation and engagement, which is often hampered by long scan times, accelerating imaging can not only save on expensive imaging time but can also improve the value of the research.

    Compressed SENSE helps you save valuable time

    Dr. S. Sartoretti, Head of neuroradiology who is telling about her experience with Philips Compressed SENSE
    We are essentially running our standard protocols and just turning Compressed SENSE on and seeing a 20% reduction in scan time. None of the physicians know if it’s a Compressed SENSE scan versus a non-Compressed SENSE scan when they’re reading."

    From our point of view, tangibly within the pilot, we had a time saving of 30-50% for a lot of our routine work. We could scan on average an extra 17-20 patients per week. For us that equated to an extra 1.5 days of scanner time available.
