Maximizing Your 3T Productivity.
Healthcare providers worldwide are under increasing pressure to manage two contradictory forces: delivering the highest quality care while contending with a reduced budget. The number of MRI scans continues to rise as MRI continues to prove its diagnostic value and expand growing clinical fields 1. At the same time, global reimbursements continue to fall.
The MAGNETOM Skyra from Siemens Healthineers is 3T MRI designed to turn these challenges into opportunities.
Features & Benefits
Growing healthcare expenditures and changing patient populations have led to an increased demand for standardization and higher efficiency. With a full range of routine and advanced applications, the MAGNETOM Skyra allows you to answer these challenges. Improve your processes through greater standardization and extend your clinical capabilities by offering new services.
Deliver exceptional quality and speed
GOBrain enables clinically validated push-button brain examinations in five minutes. This is enabled by Tim 4G's ultra-high coil element density, delivering exceptional quality and speed for efficient processes, day in and day out. In addition, CAIPIRINHA reduces the need for rescans by enabling shorter breath hold times.
Achieve consistent results efficiently
DotGO keeps your processes running on time with intuitive protocol management, user guidance and smart automation techniques integrated in one user interface. Leverage powerful DotGO solutions to ensure an efficient workflow and consistent image quality across all patients and operators.
Expand your MRI services
Further expand your MRI services with Simultaneous Multi-Slice (SMS), a paradigm shift in MR imaging. With SMS, you can accelerate 2D exams significantly and perform advanced neurological examinations previously excluded from routine imaging.
