Welcome to the ECHELON Smart MRI scanner.
Make your MRI exams even smarter.
SmartCOMFORT for exams that put your patients and operators at ease
ECHELON Smart MRI scanner makes the whole-body examination process more comfortable. For your patients that means silent scans without the need for earplugs or contrast injections. Meanwhile your operators benefit from automated exam processes – and remote application and service support around-the-clock.
- Reduced noise levels decrease patient anxiety without prolonging scan time or compromising the image quality thanks to SoftSound.
- Image complex hemodynamics without injecting your patient with any contrast agents – via BeamSAT TOF or VASC-ASL, for angiography, perfusion and diffusion imaging.
- User-friendly with various fully automated features and easy-to-use functions.
- Remote application support to help optimise protocols, train technicians – and control the entire exam online with SENTINEL™.
- Remote maintenance support delivers automatic notification of anything suspicious via SENTINEL™ – maximising your uptime.
SmartQUALITY imaging for the whole body
ECHELON Smart MRI scanner gives you exactly what you need most to make confident decisions: clear and precise images with high diagnostic value.
- Equipped with multiple sequences to tackle all your clinical MR imaging challenges.
- All around RADAR imaging to reduce motion artefacts.
- Quantitative mapping of iron dispositions and plaque with SIR Map and T2* Map.
- Various fat suppression methods with minimised influence of magnetic susceptibility – like STIR, FatSep, H-Sinc or Water Excitation.
- A wealth of advanced imaging features like IP-RAPID, TIGRE, ADAGE, TRAQ, FLUTE, VASC, BSI and isoFSE.
- Individual shimming per patient for a uniform magnetic field, outstanding image quality and increased patient comfort with HOSS.
SmartSPEED for faster examination time and greater patient throughput
Improve your exam efficiency by means of automation, simplification and acceleration. ECHELON Smart MRI scanner delivers quick and consistent results, high image quality, increased patient throughput – and ultimately, a better patient and user experience.
