Resource saving solution
One of the smallest MR systems with a compact footprint* of 29.8 m2
Minimize investment in valuable floor space with a 29.8 m2 footprint that excels in the 1.5T wide bore market.*
In addition to the reduced system size, the installation method, cooling method, and control cabinet have been innovatively redesigned.
-Weight : 8020 kg (varies depending on configuration)
-Minimize footprint : 29.8 m2（excels in the 1.5T wide bore market.*
* The 5 Gauss line is not confined within the Scan Room. Controlled access area should be taken into account by the facility when preparing for installation. The above specifications may not meet the local requirements. Please consult with your architectural and/or electric consultant for coding requirements. Some power equipment may be16.4 m² required to be placed in a dedicated electrical room. The minimum footprint may not be applied to some cases depending on each site.
-Short magnet and 71 cm wide bore offers an open MRI scanning environment
The wide bore patient aperture and in-bore immersive virtual experience enhance patient comfort.
-Gloss Coating
As procedure numbers increase so does the time required for cleaning. New gloss coating allows for easier and faster cleaning which saves time between procedures, allowing you to quickly proceed to the next patient.
-Zero helium boil-off
Eliminates the necessity of periodic helium refilling and as a result increases the system uptime, enhances environmental performance, and reduces helium costs.
-Workflow Solutions
With advanced productivity the total amount of time and energy can be reduced for every procedure. Canon automated workflow solutions simplify the flow of MR procedures from beginning to end, and assure image consistency between patients and operators.
-Contrast reduction for environment benefit
Contrast agents are excreted from the body via the urine, they also enter the aquatic environment through our sewage systems. Reducing resource consumption is crucial to support the transition towards more environmentally sustainable healthcare.
-Non-contrast imaging
Vascular and blood flow assessment in all areas is performed without the use of contrast media.
-Recycling / Reducing Packing
Recyclable materials of the product and Circular Economy
Canon Medical Systems develops products that promote a circular economy.
By designing and manufacturing products using recyclable parts, Canon Medical actively collects and reuses parts that can be used in new products after the products have been used and discarded. In addition, for equipment collected for reuse of parts, we follow Canon Medical Systems’ recycling operation rules for residual materials after parts are collected.
In this way, we aim to reduce the environmental impact and increase the effectiveness of recycling.
