Competing with Magna-Labin the niche MRI segment is Lunar, which markets the Artoscanmagnet manufactured by Esaote Biomedica of Italy. Artoscan isa 0.2-tesla permanent magnet scanner optimized for extremity imaging.
Lunar, of Madison, WI, will release a new software packageat the RSNA meeting called Version 3.3 B. The package includes3-D imaging sequences and multiformat reconstruction and givesArtoscan the ability to conduct volume imaging, according to BillConn, MRI marketing manager.
Lunar is also introducing a remote diagnostics capability forthe scanner, dubbed Artoscan Remote Assistance System (ARAS).ARAS allows Lunar engineers to maintain, diagnose and providesoftware upgrades for Artoscan via modem.
