RTHawk is an accessory to 1.5T and 3.0T whole-body magnetic resonance diagnostic devices (MRDD or MR). It is intended to operate alongside, and in parallel with, the existing MR console to acquire traditional, real-time and accelerated images. The HeartVista Cardiac Package is a collection of RTHawk Apps designed to acquire, reconstruct and display cardiovascular MR (CMR) images.
RTHawk produces static and dynamic transverse, coronal, sagittal, and oblique cross-sectional images that display the internal structures and/or functions of the entire body. The images produced reflect the spatial distribution of nuclei exhibiting magnetic resonance. The magnetic resonance properties that determine image appearance are proton density, spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin relaxation time (T2) and flow. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that may assist in the determination of a diagnosis.
RTHawk is intended for use as an accessory to the following MRI systems:
Manufacturer: GE Healthcare (GEHC)
Field Strength: 1.5T and 3.0T
Scanner Software Versions: 12, 15, 16, 23, 24, 25
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
