The Clever Spin on 1.5T
Providers around the world are working to increase the efficiency of healthcare systems and achieve better outcomes for patients. The MAGNETOM Amira from Siemens Healthineers provides answers to these challenges.
This 1.5T MRI scanner is specifically designed to enhance your clinical capabilities through the delivery of comprehensive, advanced technology. MAGNETOM Amira helps you extend care to a greater number of patients, improve the patient experience, and boost process efficiency at lower costs per scan.
Increase patient comfort with Quiet Suite
Gain diagnostic value
With the latest syngo software, high-density coils, and enhanced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the MAGNETOM Amira lets you reach more patient groups thanks to free-breathing exams.
Streamline operations with 10-min exams
Ensure consistent and standardized quality of care while remaining the preferred provider in your community. The MAGNETOM Amira helps standardize and streamline operations with best practice-based protocols enabling 10-minute exams in body regions representing 75% of exams.
Reduce energy by 30% with Eco-Power
With expenditures on labor, power and helium increasing every year and MR reimbursements in decline, optimizing financial performance is critical. The MAGNETOM Amira helps you save energy and overall costs by cutting energy by 30% during standby.
Clinical Use
When it comes to clinical capabilities, the MAGNETOM Amira provides a comprehensive application portfolio standard. Its trendsetting innovations are designed to help you achieve better outcomes for patients and meet the increasing demands in clinical healthcare. Combined with Tim 4G and DotGO, this application portfolio can bring even the most complex exams into your clinical routine.
Neurology
Experience high resolution and benefit from fast protocols and quieter exams for uncooperative patients. Your MAGNETOM Amira’s Neuro Suite includes advanced protocols for diffusion imaging, perfusion imaging and fMRI. The Brain Dot Engine helps increase consistency, even when conditions change during the course of the examination.
Orthopedics
With Ortho Suite comes a comprehensive collection of protocols for joint imaging, including the spine. Tim 4G’s ultra high-density coils for MSK imaging improve SNR and anatomic coverage. Dot’s customizable workflows feature AutoAlign and AutoCoverage for knee, hip, and shoulder and MPR planning for fast 3D measurements and Inline 3D multiplanar reformatting. WARP offers a comprehensive suite of techniques to provide susceptibility artifact reduction functionality.
Body Imaging
The new certainty in Body MRI, FREEZEit helps you overcome motion and opens up many diagnostic possibilities. With the Abdomen Dot Engine, you gain standardized, efficient, and comprehensive workflows for the upper abdomen with excellent image quality. With LiverLab, you can perform quantitative liver evaluation, non-invasively, on the fly.
Cardiology
Angiography
Breast MRI
From clinical imaging to biopsy guidance, the MAGNETOM Amira offers a wide selection of breast coils and enables outstanding image quality. Excellent soft tissue differentiation, customized protocols and flexible multiplanar visualization allow for fast, simple and reproducible evaluation of MRI breast examinations. The Breast Dot Engine offers different workflows for optimized image quality and consistency.
Prostate MRI
With the combination of high-density spine and body matrix coils alone, the MAGNETOM Amira enables excellent multiparametric imaging of the prostate in terms of morphology, physiology and function. Together with dedicated solutions for reading and reporting, the workflow for prostate MRI is comprehensively covered.
Pediatric MRI
Tissue relaxation times in pediatrics1 are very different compared to those of adults due to developing tissues, body size, faster heart rates and reduced compliance with breath-hold commands. With the MAGNETOM Amira, protocols are available to be adapted for imaging infants.
Oncology
The MAGNETOM Amira’s Onco Suite features a collection of sequences, protocols and evaluation tools that guide users through the detailed assessment of a variety of oncological conditions. Together with Dot’s on-board guidance, this innovative technology improves patient throughput and provides superb image quality.
