The operators of the MR and PET•CT center Bremen-Mitte postponed the procurement of a 3 Tesla MR system for many years. Since it was needed to provide both outpatient and inpatient radiology, the MR system had to be suitable for clinical routine.

The MR unit of our institute, EKO MRI Centre, was established in 1992 with a 1 Tesla System. A 1.5 Tesla unit was subsequently added in response to increasing patient load and demand for MRI. When we found it necessary to further enhance our services we replaced the 1 Tesla unit with a 3 Tesla MRI.
