The MAGNETOM Spectra is a cost-optimized high field MRI system with Tim 4G and Dot technologies. The system consumes less energy compared to other 3 Tesla scanners. The magnet-cooling helium is contained in a closed loop, which prevents the gas from escaping and reduces the need for refills. TimTX includes innovative techniques in the radio frequency excitation hardware as well as new application and processing features enabling uniform RF distribution in all body regions.

From Siemens Medical Systems;
with the introduction of this system, it is possible to perform contrast MR angiography for abdominal, thoracic and neck vessels from the origins to the circle of Willis. The system also has many newer features including functional imaging, spectroscopy, advanced body, ortho- and neuroimaging.

From Siemens Medical Systems;
The Magnetom Trio™, a 3T whole body MRI system with Tim (total imaging matrix technology), targets clinical applications such as abdominal, cardiac, spine, whole body and orthopedics. TIM enables flexible coil combinations for high resolution imaging of large anatomical areas without the need to change coils.

From Siemens Medical Systems;
Received FDA clearance in 2007.
The MAGNETOM Verio provides up to 102 integrated matrix coil elements and up to 32 independent radiofrequency channels that allow flexible coil combinations to make patient and coil repositioning virtually unnecessary. The Tim (total imaging matrix) technology also increases patient throughput due to a shorter scan time.
The open bore design offers great comfort for patients of all shapes and sizes.
