Nonprofit Catholic community hospital, Little Company of Mary, has installed the Vantage Atlas MR system from diagnostic imaging systems provider Toshiba America Medical Systems.

The Evergreen Park, Ill.-based hospital chose the Vantage Atlas in order to provide safe MRA procedures to its patients. The Vantage MR product line is a full suite of contrast-free MRA techniques, including fresh blood imaging (FBI), contrast-free improved angiography (CIA), time-spatial labeling inversion pulse (time-SLIP) and time and space angiography (TSA), said the Tustin, Calif.-based company.
