Hi all -
I am translating a short diagnostic report from Panama on a brain MRI performed on a patient.
I am not sure how to translate the phrase "de bajo testaje" which appears in the following context:
Estudio realizado en equipo abierto de bajo teslaje con protocolo escogido. Se evalúan secuencias en diferentes planos.
Espacio subaracnoideo conservado.
Adecuada diferenciaciôn sustancia gris de la sustancia blanca. Lfnea media central. Sistema ventricular simétrico.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Michael

low-field strength
[MRI on low-field tomography systems (0.2 Tesla). A quantitative comparison with equipment of medium-field strength (1.0 Tesla)]
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9454269/
When medical professionals refer to magnetic resonance (MR) scanners, they sometimes say the scanner is a 1.5T or 3.0T scanner. This is because scanners are frequently identified by their magnetic field strength. In terms of MR, T stands for tesla, a unit of measurement.1 Tesla is the unit of measurement to define the magnetic flux density. This is a unit of measurement on the International System of Units, which is the metric system. One tesla is the same as one weber (the representation of magnetic flux) per square meter. One tesla is equal to 10,000 gauss. With higher tesla scanners, the magnet is stronger, both in general and within the bore of the machine. The magnet and its magnetic field is arguably the most important aspect of an MRI scanner. Across the MR industry, most scanners are 1.5T or 3.0T, however there are varying strengths below 1.5T and more recently, up to 7.0T.

Modelos de máquinas de resonancia magnética abierta
Existen abiertas de bajo campo, 0.3 Teslas, que a diferencia de la nuestra 1Tesla no permite obtener imágenes de calidad suficiente para estudios más complejos como angioRM y RM de abdomen y pelvis para ver los organos internos incluido recto, próstata y útero-ovarios; estudios de cráneo con difusión; ni puede hacer estudios de cardioRM, además de estudios que con un alto campo de 1T como el nuestro SI se pueden hacer.

What Is a 3 Tesla MRI?
Tesla (T) is the unit of measurement quantifying the strength of a magnetic field. Prior to the 3 Tesla (3T) Machine, the high-field standard was 1.5 Tesla. Our scanner generates a magnetic field that is twice the strength of 1.5 Tesla machines and 10 to 15 times the strength of low field or open MRI scanners.
