The new 70 cm bore Magnetom Flow. 1.5 Tesla (T) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging platform from Siemens Healthineers has a closed helium circuit and no quench pipe to reduce helium dependency. The upgradable platform covers the entire range of MR applications and offers image reconstruction based on artificial intelligence (AI) for shorter scan times with improved image quality. It requires just 0.7 liters of liquid helium for cooling, compared with conventional MRI scanners that typically require over 1,000 liters. Its lack of a quench pipe and the scanner’s compact size can reduce installation requirements and costs compared to other 1.5T MR scanners. The platform reduces annual energy consumption up to 56% compared with the previous generation of Siemens Healthineers MR scanners.¹ AI supports automated workflows, including new cardiac workflows that simplify and standardize the setup of scan parameters. High-density contour coils are available in four sizes.
