MAGNETOM Avanto 1.5 Tesla MRI System with Tim technology
The MAGNETOM Avanto 1.5 Tesla MRI Scanner with Tim technology by Siemens Healthcare provides a new level of seamless image quality with unprecedented acquisition speed and ease of use. The heart of the MRI Scanner is the magnet, and the MAGNETOM Avanto has the best-in-class magnet homogeneity which results in excellent image quality. With the MAGNETOM Avanto head-to-toe imaging in a very short time has come into routine clinical issue owing to its powerful hardware and software. The entire system is an engineering marvel harboring an ergonomically designed table, gantry and hardware and software that is designed to ensure the Audio Comfort of the patient by minimizing the sound levels. This makes the scan very comfortable for the patient and helps achieve excellent patient compliance. It is fully loaded with the neuro, ortho, cardiac, onco, body, angio, paediatric and breast suites which ensures uninterrupted workflow empowering the user to handle all applications. The new syngo Blade sequence is extremely useful in minimizing motion induced artifacts in very sick patients.

Apart from this some advanced applications such as the following, help the specialists diagnose critical cases.
syngo SWI – A Siemens unique software which can diagnose micro-bleeds (diffuse axonal injury) and hemorrhagic transformation of stroke. The phase information is useful for detection of occult vascular disease (cavernomas, angiomas, and telangiectasias), cerebral venous thrombosis, intra-arterial clot detection and other mineral deposition. SWI is a very significant tool for diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis, etc.) and to characterize tumors.

syngo BOLD: is a comprehensive processing and visualization package for functional MRI studies. This allows the visualization of important brain centers, which control our activities, and the spatial relationship of these with normal anatomy or brain lesions. fMRI studies are helpful in neurosurgical planning, to assess the effects of neurodegenerative diseases, trauma or stroke on brain function, and brain mapping.

syngo Inline Perfusion: It is an important feature for looking into penumbra in case of acute stroke which can modify the treatment planning.

SOMATOM Definition AS+ 128 Slice Adaptive CT Scanner
SOMATOM Definition 128 slice Adaptive CT Scanner (AS+) is the world’s fastest single source CT scanner introduced by Siemens Healthcare. This CT Scanner adapts to virtually any patient and clinical need and is capable of all routine diagnostic work as well as advanced examinations in cardiology, neurology and oncology. It is also suited for emergency situations like accidents, stroke symptoms or atypical chest pain requiring speedy diagnosis. Even difficult to image patients – obese, trauma and children – are quickly scanned with high diagnostic confidence. The system with its 128 slices/per rotation, fast rotation speed of 300 ms, which is the fastest single source CT Scanner in the industry and high temporal resolution of 150 ms generates crystal-clear images with visualization of the finest anatomical details.

SOMATOM Definition AS+ is the first scanner to combine dynamic components such as the unique radiation dose reduction hardware such as Adaptive Dose Shield, which enable CT scanning with the lowest radiation dose for all types of patients. On this system, fast whole body examinations required for patients with multiple traumas are possible allowing faster application of life-saving treatment. Its high rotation speed and huge coverage enables excellent imaging of the coronary vessels with lowest radiation dose. The high isotropic resolution and validated measurement software permits highly accurate measurement of stenosis in coronary and peripheral vessels and visualization of stents for evaluation of patency.

Another outstanding feature of the SOMATOM Definition AS+ 128 slice CT Scanner is the comprehensive Oncology package which allows the latest Computer Aided Detection techniques for tumor evaluation.
