BioMatrix TechnologyEmbrace human nature
Patients have unique, individual characteristics – biovariabilities. Different physiologies and anatomies – but also the way we interact with them and technology – cause unwarranted variations in imaging results. BioMatrix Technology helps overcome these challenges by automatically adjusting to patient biovariability. By embracing human nature in this way, we can personalize examinations and help expand precision medicine.
All features of BioMatrix at a glance
Find out how BioMatrix Technology with its six features helps you expand precision medicine in MRI.
BioMatrix Interfaces
Accelerate patient preparation for increased efficiency
BioMatrix Interfaces simplify how the user interacts with the scanner and the patient, accelerating patient preparation in order to increase quality and improve cost-effectiveness. No matter how tall, big, or mobile a patient is – or how experienced the technologist is – BioMatrix Interfaces speed up the workflow for increased efficiency.
BioMatrix Sensors
Anticipate motion for high-quality results
Motion is a challenge in MRI. It can significantly decrease image quality, limit scan consistency, and lead to costly rescans. Fully integrated in the system architecture, BioMatrix Sensors capture respiratory and cardiac4 motion, which both boosts consistency and frees up the user to select the optimal exam strategy. This combination ensures high-quality results.

BioMatrix Technology
Embrace human nature
Increase ease of use
Beat Sensor1
Faster and simpler cardiac exams thanks to a sensor integrated in our coil
No need to apply electrodes directly to the patients’ skin
Respiratory Sensors
Simplify and speed up exams by eliminating the need to apply a respiratory belt or navigators
Permit constant monitoring of the patient's breathing pattern to perform the right scan technique
Select & GO
Up to 30% faster patient positioning2 with one touch thanks to AI Replaces the need for laser guidance for most of the body regions
Avoids repositioning delays
Dockable table with eDrive
Motorized assistance reduces physical strain
Easy, fast, and automated docking to the scanner transforms a complex task into an easy and repeatable workflow step
Raise financial certainty
BioMatrix Technology- Increased patient throughput translates into more reimbursement opportunities
- Lower costs per scan thanks to shorter appointments
- Excellent patient satisfaction leads to more referrals down the line
- Challenging patient groups can be handled with ease
- More predictable appointment schedule owing to fewer rescans
Enhance image quality
CoilShim
Excellent shim effect in the challenging head/neck region, resulting in fewer artifacts, sharper images, and better fat surpression imaging
Additional shim elements included in head/neck coil for greater B0 field homogeneity
SliceAdjust
Excellent shim effect across large volumes, resulting in fewer artifacts, sharper images, and better fat surpression imaging
Slice-by-slice shimming procedure permits reliable and distortion-free whole-body DWI and improved fat saturation during TSE sequences
Improve patient experience
Beat Sensor1
Built-in sensor speeds up cardiac exams
Enhanced comfort because no electrodes need to be applied
Respiratory Sensors
Speed up exams and enhance comfort by eliminating the need to apply a respiratory belt
Select & GO
Faster patient positioning results in faster exams and shorter appointments
Enhanced comfort because AI guidance reduces the need for physical touch
Dockable table with eDrive
Increased sense of safety thanks to smooth maneuvering and docking
Table can be raised and lowered to accommodate all patient groups
