Product Overview
The Fujifilm Echelon Smart 1.5T MRI represents a giant leap forward in medical imaging. The machine’s power and precision result in crisp, clear images for diagnostic purposes. Those results don’t come at the expense of patient comfort.
Key features of the Fujifilm Smart 1.5T MRI include the following:
- High-quality images with ideal contrast, spatial resolution, and signal-to-noise ratio
- Quiet and comfortable patient experience
- Smaller footprint
- More efficient workflows
- Optimized energy efficiency
Core Features of the Fujifilm Echelon Smart 1.5T MRI
Fujifilm engineers have optimized almost every aspect of this groundbreaking MRI machine. These are just a few of the ways it could change the field of imaging as we know it:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Field Strength | 1.5 Tesla superconductive magnet, delivering high-quality imaging in a compact design |
| RF System | Equipped with an 18 kW RF power output, ensuring stable RF transmission and clear images, even during sequences requiring continuous refocus pulses |
| Gradient System | Maximum gradient strength of 33 mT/m and a maximum slew rate of 130 T/m/s, supporting fast and precise imaging |
| Receiver Channels | 16-channel receiver coil system designed for high sensitivity and efficient patient setup, enhancing image quality and reducing examination time |
| Comfort | Reduces acoustic noise by up to 96% without compromising image quality or scan time, enhancing patient comfort during examinations |
| Energy | Energy-saving feature that minimizes power consumption during periods of non-use, reducing operational costs while maintaining system readiness |
Patients want a quiet, calm MRI experience. However, aggressive noise reduction can cause detail blurring or artifact introduction. Smart COMFORT is different.
Fujifilm’s adjustments minimize negative side effects while reducing acoustic noise by up to 96%. Best of all, those reductions don’t come with long imaging time frames. Patients are in and out of the machines quickly.
All MRIs have key sub-systems responsible for core parts of the imaging process. Fujifilm’s detailed design and performance characteristics of the individual components of the MRI mean high-quality imaging without compromises.
When all parts of the machine are perfectly designed and calibrated, the results are images you can trust for your diagnostic processes.
Long imaging times are taxing on both patients and your bottom line. The Echelon Smart includes optimized workflows for quick and effective operation.
The AutoPose and Parameter Guidance functions make getting patients on and off the table faster. Meanwhile, quick scanning capabilities ensure shorter scan times and fewer re-scanning requests.
Most superconductive MRI machines come with high operational costs. They need a lot of energy to stay cool and operational. The Echelon is different.
Every Echelon machine comes with an energy-saving function. When you’re not using the equipment, the cooling system turns off to reduce your power consumption. The result is a lower overall energy consumption cost.
Space is at a premium in hospitals, clinics, and other medical facilities. Waste can lead to lost financial opportunities. Echelon requires less space than a traditional MRI.
Echelon’s unique construction also allows for flexible layouts. An extended cable length between the gantry and the power unit will enable you to get creative.
The Echelon is powered by a high-speed A/D converter that suppresses noise while enhancing image quality. You and your patients will notice the difference in the sound of your imaging appointments. Your clinical staff will see the difference in the scan quality.
Fujifilm technologies enhance image quality on every single scan. An increased number of receiver coils improves reception sensitivity and stability during high-speed imaging. Meanwhile, the RF power output ensures stable maintenance of radiation waveforms.
