Unlike the G-SCAN, neither the magnet nor the patient table on S-SCAN can rotate from a horizontal to a vertical position. Specific improvements include a modified support to hold up the magnet and gantry, a display panel on the front of the magnet, different external covers for the new patient table and support, a modified version of the magnet poles and gradient coils used in G-SCAN, and a new software release.
