What does Integrated Panoramic Array (IPA™) mean?
The Integrated Panoramic Array™ coil concept represents a huge leap forward and is unique in the industry. In this new coil concept, the CP Spine Array Coil and the CP Head Array Coil are integrated into the table top. Both remain on the table, and you simply plug in additional coils according to your patient’s needs. Each coil can be activated and deactivated with just one mouse click in the graphic coil element which is aligned to the anatomical area you want to focus on. The Integrated Panoramic Array™ allows you to scan simultaneously with up to 16 CP coil elements (Whole Body Array). Each receiver has a bandwidth of 1 MHz. The advantages are revolutionary: you do not have to change coils in more than 95% of all studies. Not only does this save time, it also makes examination more comfortable, especially for patients who are in pain (e.g. Oncology).
