Siemens Healthineers to Showcase Magnetom Vida MRI at RSNA 2017

70 cm scanner BioMatrix technology to optimize scanning parameters according to patient characteristics

Siemens Healthineers to Showcase Magentom Vida MRI at RSNA 2017

September 18, 2017 — Siemens Healthineers announced it will display the new Magnetom Vida 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system at the 2017 annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), Nov. 26-Dec. 1 in Chicago.

The 70-cm scanner features Siemens’ exclusive BioMatrix technology – a collection of sensors, tuners and interfaces that automatically adapts to anatomical and physiological characteristics to provide consistent, high-quality imaging for all patient types. The scanner architecture and applications simplify and accelerate workflows while increasing exam precision and patient comfort. It is designed with a new magnet and up to 60 mT/m gradient strength to support high-end applications.

Fig. 1 The basis of high-sensitivity SPION imaging at ultra-low magnetic fields.

(A) Magnetization of 25-nm SPIONs (green), gadolinium CA (Gd-DTPA/Magnevist, blue), and water (red) as a function of magnetic field strength (B0). (B) Magnetization as a function of magnetic field strength (B0) in the ULF (<10 mT) regime for the materials shown in (A). Superparamagnetic materials, such as SPIONs, are highly magnetized even at ULF. Paramagnetic materials, such as CAs based on gadolinium, and body tissues (which typically have diamagnetic susceptibilities close to water) have absolute magnetizations that increase linearly with field strength. Curves in (A) and (B) were reproduced from data in (32, 53) and reflect the magnetic moment per kilogram of compound. (C) Highly magnetized SPIONs (brown) interact with nearby 1H spins in water, shortening 1H relaxation times, and causing susceptibility-based shifts in Larmor frequency.
