SPINBENCH

SpinBench^TM is a software environment designed for the rapid prototyping and analysis of magnetic resonance imaging experiments.

Prototype MRI experiments
easier than ever before

SpinBench is a software environment designed for the rapid prototyping and analysis of magnetic resonance imaging experiments. MR pulse sequences can be easily defined and simulated in a variety of ways, all through the graphical user interface. SpinBench is also a valuable teaching tool for courses covering MRI spin physics.

SpinBench also serves as the core sequencing engine for Vista Cardiac and RTHawk Research
