FUJIFILM Europe GmbH (Steinhausen, Switzerland) is presenting its latest Echelon Synergy MRI system at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR) 2024 in Vienna. The 1.5 Tesla superconductive scanner employs AI-powered features to enhance image quality and scanning speed.

The 70 cm wide bore MRI scanner has been designed to empower radiographers to deliver comfort-focused care for a remarkable patient experience. The imaging system accommodates a 62 cm wide, height-adjustable table with a 250 kg capacity, and features a FlexFit radiofrequency (RF) coil system for total control over individual or multiple coil arrays to allow positioning of all sizes of patients. The 33/130 capable gradient system and powerful imaging architecture ensure high-performance imaging, delivering outstanding clinical benefits and ensuring patients receive the best care possible.

The new imaging system is also designed to provide benefits to boost the efficiency of workflows. FUJIFILM’s Vertex III computer and Celeris MRI operating software deliver seamless workflow optimization at every stage of the process, from patient registration and scanning to image processing and management. Patient, coil, and gating information from the system’s dual gantry-mounted monitors can be used to accelerate patient preparation, and AutoExam one-touch scanning controls enhance the speed, quality and ease of imaging.

“We are excited to launch the Echelon Synergy to address the need for patient comfort-focused solutions that simultaneously eradicate MRI bottlenecks,” said Janos Esztergalyos, Product Manager MRCT at Fujifilm Healthcare Europe. “This system is the perfect fit for centers looking to accelerate the efficiency of their workflows with AI and deliver a world-class imaging experience for patients.”
