Contrast in your images. Not in your patients.
Non-Contrast Imaging
In 1998, Canon Medical Systems pioneered non-contrast MR imaging. Now, with over 20 years of clinical experience, Canon Medical Systems' Vantage systems are the only systems available with a complete suite of contrast-free MRA techniques.

Fresh Blood Imaging Visualization of blood flow in one acquisition.
Fresh Blood Imaging
- 3D FASE, ECG gated sequence, designed to improve the natural visualization of blood vessels
- FBI distinguishes arteries from veins by utilizing the loss of arterial signal in systole due to fast flow compared to diastole
Flow-Spoiled FBI
FS-FBI utilizes a small dephasing gradient to vastly improve flow depiction in the lower extremities or patients with poor circulation.
Time-Spatial Labeling Inversion Pulse (Time-SLIP) Improve patient satisfaction with safe and accurate vascular imaging.
Time-Spatial Labeling Inversion Pulse (Time-SLIP)
Time-SLIP is an Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) variant that is typically used to depict blood vessels within a targeted region in any imaging orientation.
Time-SLIP has been evaluated for use in the renal arteries, carotid arteries, pulmonary system and portal-venous system. It produces accurate angiograms using blood as an endogenous tracer, instead of a contrast agent.
Visualization of vascular circulation.
Time-SLIP Complex Circulation
ASL combined with 3D SSFP or FASE to tag moving blood. Used to image complex circulation or multidirectional flow.
- Hepatic veins
- Carotid
- Pulmonary
- Renal arteries

Improve patient safety with perfusion-weighted images generated without contrast medium.
3D ASL Perfusion
- ASL can be performed on patients with suspected or known cerebrovascular disease, tumor and seizures or for mapping of blood flow during functional activation studies
- CBF ASLR semi-quantification method is based on Buxton Model
Improve patient safety with perfusion-weighted images generated without contrast medium.
3D ASL MRA
- Allows for completely non-invasive visualization of hemodynamic flow in the Circle of Willis and carotids
- As the leader in Non-Contrast Imaging technology, 3D Arterial Spin Labeling MR angiography is unique to Canon Medical Systems
- When combined with 3D ASL, it can validate cerebral blood flow patterns
