The limiting factors include instal- lation and operating costs as well as the lack of qualified personnel, just to name a few. “Right now, more than half of the world’s population has no access to MRI examin- ations. In developing countries, but also in rural regions of many industrialized nations, MRI scanners are not widely available. The two MRIs are based on the “High-V MRI” platform and are the smallest and most lightweight whole-body scanners that Siemens Healthineers has built. Together with Magnetom Free.Max, the 0.55 Tesla Magnetom Free.Star is part of a new generation of scanners which achieve excellent image quality with relatively low magnetic field strength combined with the use of artificial intelligence and digital technologies.

Siemens Healthineers has introduced Magnetom Free.Star, a cost-effective wholebody MRI scanner, designed to significantly increase access to magnetic resonance imaging worldwide.
