MRI System Calibration

Restore Accuracy. Improve Image Quality. Prevent Repeat Scans.

Over time, even a well-maintained MRI system can drift out of calibration. When that happens, image artifacts are distorted or unreliable, and that puts your patients at risk. FDM Enterprises provides precise MRI system calibration service for GE and Siemens systems to restore optimal performance.

With over 25 years of field experience, we ensure your system is operating to spec, and your imaging quality is where it should be.

  • What We Calibrate

    • Gradient linearity and amplifier timing
    • RF phase and frequency alignment
    • Magnet homogeneity and shim settings
    • Table position and gantry mechanics
    • Phantom image quality (SNR, artifacts, distortion, geometry)
    • Helium compressor pressure verification

  • Our MRI System Calibration Process

    1. Review performance logs and QA records

    2. Perform phantom scans and diagnostic tests

    3. Adjust RF and gradient cal per OEM specs

    4. Validate with final QA scan and produce documentation

Frequently asked questions

Why is professional MRI system calibration important?

Professional MRI system calibration is crucial to ensure images meet spatial and contrast accuracy standards. It helps prevent misdiagnoses and ensures compliance with ACR accreditation requirements.

What does MRI system calibration involve?

MRI system calibration includes adjusting gradient linearity, RF phase, magnet homogeneity, and phantom image quality to restore optimal imaging performance and prevent image artifacts or distorted scans.

How does FDM Enterprises perform MRI system calibration?

FDM Enterprises reviews performance logs, conducts phantom scans, adjusts RF and gradient values to OEM specs, and validates calibration with a final QA scan to ensure high-quality imaging.

What happens if MRI calibration is ignored?

Ignoring MRI system calibration can lead to image artifacts, resulting in poor diagnoses, unnecessary repeat scans, and potential patient risks. Regular calibration ensures safe and reliable imaging.
