The increasing use of MR to diagnose a variety of conditions and illnesses has led to demands for greater efficiency. Too often, it seems that productivity is at odds with giving patients the time and attention they desire. Smart Workflow provides an end-to-end workflow solution supporting a better patient and staff experience, resulting in patient-centered productivity.
Auto patient centering
Region of interest is automatically placed in the iso-center of the magnet
Touchless respiratory-triggering
Patient’s breathing is detected without any operator interaction
Auto coil element selection
Optimal coil elements are selected automatically based on anatomy planning
In-room exam start
Exam start can be initiated with a single touch of at the patient's side
The entire workflow is smooth: Patient positioning and set-up; launching the scan as soon as we leave the exam room; the intuitive touchscreen on the gantry; Touchless patient sensing… All of these things are much better than on our old system."

Automated patient coaching
Patients are guided via announcements of scan duration, table movements and breath hold instructions
Automated post-processing
Fully integrated post processing with guidance and automation to reduce time to results
We don't have to manually direct the patient to breathing and not breathing. We can go ahead and let the machine do the work of the breathing instructions while we continue our planning of the exam."
