Features/Benefits
Why SIGNA™ MAGNUS?
Scan the brain with formidable precision
HEAD-ONLY
Uncover the unknown
Harness SIGNA™ MAGNUS’s strong HyperG gradient power (300 m T/m / 750 T/m/s) to push your neurological imaging to the next level. With a high PNS threshold, SIGNA™ MAGNUS lets you unleash the full potential of neurological MR and elevate the clinical standard in this uncharted territory.
Due to an innovative asymmetric gradient design, SIGNA™ MAGNUS has an enhanced diffusion performance – letting you scan the brain closer than ever before and obtain crucial insights to advance your research. Together with short TEs and extremely high b-values, SIGNA™ MAGNUS means you can fully capture the extraordinary, intricate details of the brain.
