Deep Learning Reconstruction for MR
Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE)
A new era of clarity has begun.
AiCE1 MR Deep Learning reconstruction technology produces stunning MR images that are exceptionally detailed and with the low-noise properties you might expect of a higher SNR2 image. With AiCE now expanding across a broad range of anatomies, contrast and applications.
Watch Overview "Galan 3T with AiCE: Clinical Experience"
Watch Dr. Marin McDonald, MD PhD from University of California San Diego share her initial clinical experience using Canon Medical System’s Advanced Intelligent Clear-IQ Engine technology, as shown at RSNA at the Canon Virtual RSNA 2020 Experience.

“With AiCE, we can easily address the two most pressing clinical needs of our time: superb image quality with ultra-high matrices acquired within routine scan times or abbreviated scan times with traditional resolution. These combinations, which could not be previously achieved, now allow radiologists to better tailor scans to patient needs, improving both patient care and department productivity.”2
—Dr. Gold., M.D., Clinical Radiologist and Researcher

Integrated Intelligence
Sharp, clear and distinct images. See through the noise.
Harnessing the enormous computational power of a Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN), AiCE is trained to restore low SNR MR data to match the properties of higher SNR² images.
AiCE features:
- Intelligently removes noise
- Results in increased SNR²
- Enhanced resolution
- Enhanced anatomical detail
Actual scan time reductions may vary by case.
Intelligently removes noise
Expand your MR imaging with enhanced resolution, robustness and speed
AiCE combines with rapid scanning to help you boost productivity
In combination with unique Canon scan acceleration technologies like Compressed SPEEDER and Fast 3D, you have the ability to focus on fast scans and restore SNR by removing noise during image reconstruction.

3D imaging with AiCE
3D imaging in MR allows you to see images from a different perspective however can generate more noise as there is more data acquisition required. AiCE supports 3D imaging superbly by removing noise from 3D images to maximize your diagnostic opportunities. Now you can see sharp, clear and distinct images at 3D, another big leap forward in MRI.
Diffusion Tensor Imaging with AiCE
Diffusion Tensor Imaging can visualize white matter fiber tracts by utilizing diffusion anisotropy.
In images with significant noise, diffusion anisotropy cannot be indicated clearly, however with AiCE the image quality can be improved.
