The innovative,
fetal smart-sync
Empowers you with greater diagnostic confidence and state-of-the-art parental counseling. *
smart-sync enables a brand-new kind of image quality providing valuable information for your diagnosis and allowing the parents to understand what's happening.
Problem solved
For the first time, the innovative smart-sync delivers instant crisp images of the fetal heart.
The direct synchronization of the fetal heart cycle with the MRI System provides access to pin sharp imaging - both intracardiac and extracardiac. That way, you can examine function, morphology and hemodynamics.

Assisting on all levels
Integrates easily in your clinical workflow
smart-sync detects cardiac motion and synchronizes the fetal cardiac cycle with the MR image acquisition. In that way, fetal CMR becomes possible and can be used for anatomical and functional imaging.
The quick setup in less than three minutes requires no special training. smart-sync utilizes standard cardiac MR sequences, being a plug and play solution that can be easily incorporated in your daily workflow. Its clinical utility is proven: smart-sync helps with delivery planning, organization of early postnatal care an provides valuable information for parental counseling.

"The direct gating with ultrasound will be a game-changer for the clinical use of fetal cardiac MRI"
Michael Seed, Division Head Cardiology, sick Kids Hospital Toronto
Convince yourself of the vast possibilities
From 4-chamber-view over short-axis-stack to dynamic 4D-flow, all the cardiac sequences you know from MRI can be applied to the fetal heart.
If your staff are familiar with adult or pediatric cardiac MRI, there is no additional training required to use smart-sync successfully from the first scan on. Slight adaptations for the fetus can be done by yourself or you can use the Exam Cards we provide.
