Product Description: The GE OpenSpeed 0.7T MRI System is a powerful and patient-friendly open-bore scanner designed to provide high-quality imaging with a superior patient experience. It features a 0.7 Tesla superconducting magnet, which is two to three times stronger than traditional open MRI systems, allowing for faster scan times and higher image quality. The system’s open architecture is specifically designed to reduce patient claustrophobia and accommodate a wide range of patient sizes (up to 500 lbs). The OpenSpeed is equipped with high-performance gradients (25 mT/m, 70 T/m/s slew rate) and an advanced computer system, giving it the performance equivalent of a 1.0T high-field system. This scanner supports advanced imaging protocols like Diffusion-Weighted Echo Planar Imaging (DWEPI) for stroke detection and FIESTA for high-resolution spine and inner ear imaging. Its combination of speed, image quality, and patient comfort makes it a highly effective and versatile diagnostic tool.
