In addition to the development of novel neuroimaging applications, LFMI is involved in the development of basic technology. The purchase of the Medrad Spectris Solaris is compatible with existing NINDS MR suite and will maintain continuity of user interface. The Spectris Solaris will enable the NINDS to develop fast imaging techniques that will improve MRI resolution during bolus contrast injections. This is the only power injector approved up to 3 Tesla, that has been FDA approved for the MR environment and does not produce any artifacts on images. Medrad, Inc. is the only source known to NCI/NINDS researchers that can provide a system which will meet the required needs of the MRI Facility. This is not a request for competitive procurement.
