IP-RAPID

IP-RAPID is high-speed imaging using iterative processing, reducing scan times by up to 60% while maintaining image quality comparable to conventional imaging methods that don't apply IP-RAPID.

Auto Exam

Positioning, imaging and post-processing are all completed in one step. The examination time is shortened by simplifying operations.

SmartCOMFORT

Patient-friendly Quiet Examination

Quiet examination with SoftSound

Various technologies exist to reduce MRI acoustic noise. However, reducing acoustic noise often compromise on image quality and may extend scan time, making it unsuitable for routine examination. Other approaches need dedicated hardware. Our SoftSound noise reduction technology reduces the acoustic noise by up to 96%*1maintaining image quality and scan time, and without any dedicated hardware.

SmartECO

Ecological and Economical Running Cost

Our SmartECO effectively reduces power consumption

A compact scan room with an MRI unit with less heat discharge also reduces the air conditioning requirements of the examination and equipment rooms. The energy saving function together with the reduction of heat discharge can reduce running costs by 17%*2

Smart HARDWARE

Our hardware technologies for enhancing image quality

Workflow Coil System

Receiver coils support ease of patient setting and offer superb image quality

The number of receiver coils that must be set prior to the examination is minimized to reduce replacement time and effort. With a system designed for ease of use and with the adoption of special receiver coils for individual regions, significant reduction in examination time is attained whilst maintaining high image quality.
