Synopsis

Keywords: Data Acquisition, Pulse Sequence Design, Open Innovation; Reproducible ResearchOpen innovation and reproducible research have become increasingly important in recent years. Furthermore, software version dependent application development introduces significant efforts to developers and researchers in maintaining different versions of applications for a variety of scanner software releases. In this work, we propose a software-version and programming language independent interface for data acquisition on Siemens Healthcare MAGNETOM scanners. This is achieved by generic interfaces and streaming protocols. A wide range of development and deployment opportunities is enabled with a web-API. The use of the interface is exemplarily shown with a prototype FLASH sequence and demonstrated with a phantom scan.
