QISS Angiography Workflow (XA20)

Job aid for scanning and workflow of QISS Angiography

QISS Angiography Workflow (Numaris XA20) syngo MR Systems with Numaris XA20 1. Ensure that your patient is lying supine and feet first with ECG gating placed properly 654321 PA PA2 PA3 PA4 PA5 PA6 Positions of the coil element pairs 1-6 2. Attach ECG Gating electrodes to the patient and position the PERU next to the patient’s head (as shown in picture). There is no need to capture the cycle on physio tab This can help to reduce gradient interferences or artifacts in the vicinity of the PERU transmitter unit. 3. Register Patient a.
