MRI systems are so powerful and require so much infrastructure that, until recently, they required their own dedicated rooms.
A portable magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system or Point of Care (POC) MRI machine is a compact mobile device designed for imaging patients outside of traditional MRI kits, such as emergency rooms, ambulances, rural clinics, field hospitals, and more.
To perform best in these environments, POC MRI machines are subject to strict size and weight restrictions. Like traditional MRI systems, POC MRI utilizes powerful magnets, but they are much smaller. For example, most MRI systems rely on 1.5T to 3T magnets. In contrast, Hyperfine’s new POC MRI machine uses a 0.064T magnet.
Although many specifications changed when MRI machines were designed for portability, these devices are still expected to provide accurate, clear images in a safe manner. Reliability design remains a central goal, and it starts with the smallest components in the system.
Non-magnetic trimmers and MLCCS for POC MRI machines
Non-magnetic capacitors, especially trimmer capacitors, are critical in POC MRI machines because they can precisely control the resonant frequency and impedance of the radio frequency (RF) coil, which determines the sensitivity of the machine to RF pulses and signals. In a low noise amplifier (LNA), an important component in the receiver chain, capacitors are responsible for ensuring optimal performance and enhancing signal quality, which in turn improves image quality.
MRI contrast media injector from LnkMed
Focusing on the needs of users who want to efficiently manage the injection of contrast media and saline, we have designed our MRI injector-Honor-M2001. Advanced technologies and years of experience adopted in this injector enables its quality of scans and more precise protocols, and optimizes its integration into the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment. Bescides the MRI contrast media injector, we also provide CT single injector, CT Dual head injector and Angiography high pressure injector.
Here are the summary of its features:
Function Features
Real time pressure monitoring: This secure function helps the contrast media injector provides pressure monitoring in real time.
Volume Precision: Down to 0.1mL, enables more precise timing of the injection
Air Detection Warning Function: Identifies empty syringes and air bolus
Automatic plunger advance and retract: When the syringes are set, the auto presser automatically detects the back end of the plungers, so the setting of syringes can be done safely
Digital volume indicator: Intuitive digital display ensures more accurate injection volume and increases operator confidence
Multiple phases protocols: Allows customized protocols – up to 8 phases; Saves up to 2000 customized injection protocols
3T compatible/non-ferrous: The powerhead, power control unit, and remote stand are designed for use in the MR suite
Time saving features
Bluetooth Communication: Cordless design helps keep your floors clear of tripping hazards and simplify layout and installation.
User-friendly interface: Honor-M2001 has an intuitive, icon-driven interface which is easy to learn, set up, and use. This reduced handling and manipulation, minimizes the risk of patient contamination
Better Injector Mobility: The injector can go where it needs to go in the medical environment, even around corners with its smaller base, lighter head, universal and lockable wheels, and support arm.
Other Features
Automatic syringe identification
Automated filling and priming
Snap-on syringe installation design
