How long have you been using Medis Suite MR and what aspects attracted you to this product?

I have been using Medis post processing solutions for more than 15 years and what has attracted me is the ease of use and the great amount  of information that it provides.

What are the benefits that you experience from using Medis Suite MR?

What I always saw as a big benefit is the super expedited processing, with all the tools needed for a comprehensive cardiac MR report.

What are your thoughts on the newly released novel parameter, Inward Displacement?

Inward Displacement is a great new tool that will allow to quantify wall motion abnormalities in an objective way. I recently published a case report demonstrating the use of Inward Displacement to objectively confirm regional dysfunction in a patient with a myocardial infarct.

What made Medis (Suite MR) stand out from other options in the market?

For me it is the ease of use and having a

total comprehensive tool for every type of pathology analysed using CMR.
