AIR™ Recon DL is a pioneering, deep-learning based reconstruction algorithm that improves SNR and image sharpness, enabling shorter scan times. It improves image quality at the foundational level by making use of the raw data to remove image noise and ringing.

See true-to-MR detail
From image noise to ringing, AIR™ Recon DL uses deep learning to prevent artifacts from ever being introduced to your images. The result is TrueFidelity™ MR Images. Images so clear and so sharp, you can be sure there is nothing in between you and what you need to see.

Make no substitutes for image quality
AIR™ Recon is designed to make exceptional image quality in faster scan times the new standard for MR imaging. It reduces background noise and out-of-FOV artifacts for an improved SNR and clearer, crisper images, making it easier for every technologist to consistently achieve the image quality you need in the first scan. It’s an important step in universalizing exceptional image quality and shorter scan times for all.
Conventional (3:33 min) vs. AIR™ Recon (3:33 min)
Clearly consistent images
AIR™ Recon works in the background, collecting image noise data during prescan and using it to elevate the quality of every image. It’s seamless to use, always on and available on the majority of routine clinical scans. With AIR™ Recon, you can expect clearer image quality the first time, so you can be confident that you won’t have to rescan or reschedule your patients.
