VnmrJ SWIFT Software for Agilent Varian Systems

Technology No. 2021-315

SWIFT code reimplemented in C/C++

Provides most recent, user friendly versions of all SWIFT related pulse sequences integrated with software allowing a fast local and remote image reconstruction. The functionality implemented highly exceeds from what Agilent SWIFT package has from Steady State Imaging (SSI).

The SWIFT software is copyrighted by the Regents of the University of Minnesota and covered by at least the following patents and patent applications: US7279899, US7403006, US7777484, US8067936, US8212560, US8502537, JP5836263, DE112010001536.8, US8798340, US9841480, JP6353865, US8519707, US8933698, US8750642, KR101570623, CN201280042824.4, US10537265, DE112011101171, JP5827989, US9880243, JP5753128, US10698053, US10180475.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES:

  • Easy to switch between SWIFT versions: original- SWIFT, MB-SWIFT, continuous-SWIFT and spectroscopic-SWIFT (GM-SWIFT on the implementation study);
  • ZTE and UTE sequences also implemented for comparison study;
  • Variety of magnetization preparations options to create a different contrasts;
  • Implemented Look-Locker approaches to collect T1, T1rho, B1 etc. maps in one shot;
  • The fitting program integrated with reconstruction creates the maps automatically after the data acquisition; and
  • FMRI protocol optimized based on MB-SWIFT.
