Breaking barriers

MAGNETOM Free.Max -- breaking barriers

Today more than ever, access to healthcare should be a matter of course. But barriers still exist that limit the reach and quality of care – patient groups that diverge from the norm, infrastructure constraints that limit accessibility, or clinical applications that cannot be offered. For MRI, those barriers may seem prohibitive, but often they are only imposed by conventions.

If we dare to question conventions and pursue new avenues, we can break down those barriers and expand the reach of MRI.

MAGNETOM Free.Max1

MAGNETOM Free.Max breaks barriers to expand the reach of MRI. Where patients have felt discomfort, the world's first 80 cm bore sets a new paradigm in patient comfort. Where infrastructure was an obstacle to MRI, MAGNETOM Free.Max slots into an existing helium-free infrastructure. Where access to MRI was not viable, MAGNETOM Free.Max makes access affordable. And where conventions have limited our thinking, MAGNETOM Free.Max breaks out of conventions to explore new clinical opportunities in MRI.

The digital transformation of MRI

Siemens Healthineers is bringing the digital revolution to your MRI practice. We are constantly perfecting our acquisition technologies to achieve higher image quality while reducing patient slot times. And now with Deep Resolve, we have introduced deep learning-based reconstruction to further enhance the quality of outcomes. MAGNETOM Free.Max leverages the full potential of the digital power of Siemens Healthineers for the utmost in diagnostic quality.

implant imaging with High-V MRI

Deep Resolve Gain

Deep Resolve Gain is an intelligent algorithm that uses individual quantitative noise maps in the reconstruction process for targeted denoising. It is available for a broad range of sequences and boosts image quality for maximum diagnostic capabilities.

Improved implant imaging with High-V MRI

Imaging metal implants has historically been difficult with conventional MRI systems as metal causes artifacts. High-V MRI offers intrinsic physical advantages that result in reduced metal distortions and therewith strongly improved diagnostic capabilities for implant imaging.

New opportunities in pulmonary imaging with High-V MRI

Pulmonary imaging has been notoriously difficult with conventional MRI as the air-tissue interfaces result in a fast signal decay. These challenges scale with magnetic field strength which makes High-V MRI the perfect opportunity for pulmonary imaging. As a result, High-V MRI provides possibilities to expand the reach of pulmonary MRI.

 

Reduced susceptibility challenges with High-V MRI

Susceptibility artifacts are a well know phenomena in MRI. One prominent example for such artifacts are at air-tissue interfaces, as they occur at the sinuses and orbits. The unique field strength of High-V MRI offers physical advantages that inherently reduce susceptibility artifacts. This leads to reduced geometric distortions in diffusion imaging which results in improved diagnostic quality.
