Hello Bắc. I am Tăng, an MRI tech in Vietnam. Last Saturday, I attended a conference organized by HART in Ho Chi Minh City. I had the opportunity to listen to your presentation on AI technology in MRI. I want to thank you for what you shared with us in Vietnam recently. I am a fan of yours, and I would love to meet you in the future if you have the opportunity to come back to Vietnam and participate in conferences for Radiographers. Wishing you good health, happiness, and success. Xin chào Bắc . Tôi là Tăng, tôi đang làm một MRI tech ở Việt Nam. Thứ bảy tuần trước, tôi đã tham dự hội nghị do HART tổ chức tại thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Tôi đã được nghe bạn trình bày về công nghệ AI trong MRI. Tôi muốn nói lời cảm ơn đến bạn và những gì bạn đã chia sẻ cho chúng tôi tại Việt Nam những lần vừa rồi. Tôi là một fan của bạn, Và tôi rất muốn được gặp bạn trong tương lai nếu bạn có cơ hội về Việt Nam và tham gia các hội nghị cho Radiographers . Chúc bạn nhiều sức khỏe, nhiều hạnh phúc và thành công.
@@phamtangkcglkt hi. Thanks for kindly words. I hope in the future i get the chance to be there at the conference. Happy i can contribute this time. Looking forward to next time ☺️. Take care and stay safe. 👍☺️
@@Nguyen_MRI In our Ortho practice, people of all ages will just dive onto the table when presented with superman. Most of the time we image them where they fall, adding lots of support in key areas. Scanned a 89yo with BMI of 48 a couple of weeks ago.
@@jimt2316 yeah totally see and of course first choice in my practice as well. But we do encounter patients who can't lie like superman but again depends on cases. Good to have a second choice as arm downwards for those needed ones.
I recently had a patient that could not do superman position due to really bad arthritis. He could not even lift his arm up at all. I had to turn him away because i wasnt creative enough as a brand new tech :( this video is so helpful in case i get that in the future! @@Nguyen_MRI
I've been told it does due to not blocking the airflow. Using a big pillow will block the airflow through the bore. I've been taught this, but i don't have any test or so for exactly this. Maybe in the future i will look further into this with test and facts.
To be honest i find a regular pillow much more comfortable and easier to position the patients. With this sponge the head needs to be exact in position or it feels wrong. With a pillow you have more room to do small adjustments.
@@Nguyen_MRI Can you teach me how to do or send video how to calculate or process for Liver iron quantification if it not to much for you thank you very btw very informative videos
@@jmergem you can always require the images, but need a software to do the rest.... i dont have experience with other software to do so. so im not sure
We do have the dedicated coil you are showing. We scan hand and wrist with same position also. But unfortunately scanning in supine, the signal is not uniform across the image, half of the image has higher SNR we notice it specially in axial plane .. Siemens support team say that issue because of off center scanning. So we lost the advantage of that coil being capable of supine scanning in comfortable position. Do you exhibit the same issue regarding non uniform SNR across the image when scanning in supine?
Thanks for comment and I do find myself in your situation on our old skyra with old software. Having our first skyra with VD software we encounter many issues. But after e software installed many problems solved. So I'm curious on what scanner you at and software?
Hi Bac, It's great and so helpful in positioning of patient, but I want to ask pls. since the orientation (direction) of the hand is the same in superman position, what will be to input? feet first or head first still? in Pt. orientation. thank you.
@@jessetalkzone4157 thanks. Question of yours is important and never ending story. Most important is how do radiologists want to see the hand. Like I show we choose head first supine. Somehow it's wrong using that because in the dicom tag it says head first supine. So doing correctly you should use left lateral feet first / right lateral feet first then flip the images in PACs if radiologist wants so. As an anatomical position we know the hand points downwards, but my radilogists like this outcome as i show in the video. 👍
if you are scanning the Right wrist, as per the position mentioned in the video, means select Head first Left lateral and select scanning wrist as Right this will give you the outcome of scan in the right anatomical direction vice versa for the left wrist.
@@Nguyen_MRIhi,thank you and i appreciate your effort, I have a question pls,if superman position ,what i need to select the orientation?prone or supine?because hand is keeping in prone position?
So I am going to share this video with my coworkers.. the pillow thing is a huge problem.. so many people want TWO pillows and this might be why we get so many SAR issues, maybe? I call it 'Cellphone' neck because their neck is not straight. And we do not put patients in this position hand/wrist/fingers. They move around too much.. Plus I have no idea how you prop up that coil like that!!
Usually i use two pillows as patients find it more comfortable. Nonetheless, not much sar issues. Works great most of the times. What coil and how do you position your patients?
it's important to show us what is right orientation of the hand and wrist in the obtained coronal and Axial images and what is the right inputs should be provided to the MRI software to avoid reverting or mirroring. it's so confusing I highly recommend to end this argument in a seperate video

no i dont have

@@Nguyen_MRI that's my problem we didn't purchase the license for Liver Lab do you think is there another way without the Liver Lab?

Great
Hi @bac. We only have flex coils. Did you try it just putting it on top or better to make ot like Tacos.
@@andreimasilang4488 i tried. Works surprisingly. But recommend tacos to be honest.

Why that head cushion n not a regular pillow?
It's says you get better airflow through the bore compared to a big pillow. Less snr issues.
Make a video for lower limb mra plz love ❤️ from india

I am always struggling with QA in Siemens machine.When I do it’s always error.
Can you make a video on that please.
