Gradient System

• Actively-shielded whole-body gradient coil system
• 33 mTm SR 125 T/m/sec
• 45 mtm SR 200 T/m/sec
• Very low eddy currents
• Water-cooled coil/amplifier for maximum performance
• All axes force compensated

Siemens' DirectRF

• Optical links between magnet and equipment room to achieve highest RF stability
• Transmit and Receive path are integrated in the magnet housing
• Receiver with high dynamic range without adjustments
• Dual-Density Signal Transfer enables ultra-high density coil designs by integrating key RF components into the local coil.

Dot integrated

Dot is the next movement in MRI. As a comprehensive workflow solution, Dot provides a customizable framework for patient personalization, step-by-step user guidance, and exam automation.

Tim 4G integrated

Tim sets the standard in MRI. Tim 4G brings ultra high-density coils combined with the highest channel configurations. The architecture of Tim 4G locates all transmit and receive components at the magnet resulting in a digital-in and digital-out design.
