The world's first 70 cm Tim+Dot system

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an image-guided process for displaying structures inside the body. The latest Siemens magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems, MAGNETOM® Aera (1.5 Tesla) is designed to make MR exams easier for the radiographer and more comfortable for the patient.

The system is equipped with the Tim+Dot system - two newly developed, powerful, and intelligent technologies, Tim® (Total imaging matrix) and Dot (Day optimizing throughput), to enhance both productivity and image quality in the MRI suite. Tim enables increased resolution while Dot is very flexible, making it easy to customize and provide uniquely tailored, optimized scans configurable to patient condition or clinical question.

In combination, these technologies enable practitioners to perform up to 30 percent more exams per day. Furthermore, it comes with a 70-centimeter Open Bore and a short magnet to make exams more patient-friendly, especially for claustrophobic and pediatric patients. It also accommodates for a large variety of body sizes, shapes, and conditions.

The MAGNETOM Aera also comes with Illumination MoodLight™ that can easily be set according to personal preferences. The unique LED light panels provide a more comfortable scanning environment.
