“Patient well-being plays a central role in MRI examinations. It not only promotes cooperation but reduces the need for repeat examinations and contributes to more precise results,” says Prof. Dr. Henrik Michaely from MVZ Radiologie Karlsruhe which already operates a system of the Magnetom Flow. Platform. “We also hope to benefit from all these aspects, if we can significantly increase overall patient throughput, also thanks to the simplified workflow.”
In addition to the new 70 cm bore, contour coils are intended to significantly improve patient comfort. The flexible coils are designed to adapt to the body and make positioning easier through integrated sensors. An XL version for faster examinations of larger body regions is planned. In addition, Siemens Healthineers plans to equip the scanner’s head and neck coils with new bone conduction audio technology for transmitting the audio signal wirelessly and with greater clarity. This technology can improve patient interaction with the operating staff and provide optimal music quality for the patient, adding to reducing anxiety during the examination.

The Magnetom Flow. Platform with a 70 cm bore size is intended as a scalable solution for healthcare facilities with different needs, for example models with different gradient strengths. If customer requirements change, upgrades4 to existing systems within the platform are planned, including the replacement of a 60 cm bore scanner with a 70 cm version directly at the point of use. This level of upgradeability can reduce costs and allow regular scanner operation to resume more quickly.
