Siemens Healthcare Kicks Off New Era of Expanded Access to High-Field MRI With First Install of Affordable MAGNETOM ESSENZA

by Barbara Kram, Editor | February 19, 2008

Due to its 1.5T field strength, the MAGNETOM ESSENZA delivers outstanding image quality that supports a complete range of clinical applications, including neurology, orthopedics, body imaging, angiography, cardiology, breast imaging, oncology, and pediatric imaging. At the same time the automated workflow makes MAGNETOM ESSENZA simple to learn and easy to use for less-experienced MR users. The high-field strength can improve diagnostic confidence and the system's powerful V-engine gradients (30 mT/m) and Tim™ (Total imaging matrix) technology boost patient throughput.
The MAGNETOM ESSENZA is the fourth 1.5T system to join Siemens' product portfolio, which also includes the MAGNETOM Avanto, the MAGNETOM Espree and the MAGNETOM Symphony. Each system is tailored to fit the diverse needs of health care providers, whether they are at large university or teaching hospitals or small diagnostic imaging centers and community-based facilities.
