MAGNETOM Espree with I-class – the first Open Bore MR
The challenge wasn’t to make a more “open” Open. The challenge was to retain the performance of a 1.5T system in a combination with the most open design possible. This combination of 1.5T, Open Bore, and Tim is something only Siemens could do. An innovation unlike anything on the market today.

MAGNETOM Espree with I-class offers a spacious 30 cm (one foot) of headroom
and a 55,5 cm (1’10’’) patient gap. That means: More headroom, more legroom, more elbowroom. No longer will the patient feel like they’re nose-to-nose with the magnet. Particularly claustrophobic or anxious patients are more relaxed throughout their examination.

Thanks to MAGNETOM Espree’s short 125 cm magnet, 60% of all applications can be done with the patients head outside of the Open Bore. So for everyone 157 cm (5’2’’) and taller, every scan below the chest can be done that way. Also, your patients will enjoy the most open lumbar scan in the market. This is CT-like comfort married to true high-field power which wasn’t possible before in any conventional Open system. |
We’ve lighted the load. For everyone. For example, our Body Matrix coil weighs only 950 grams (33.5 ounces). Significantly more comfortable, especially for sick patients. There’s also no need to invest in a separate set of dedicated coils for obese patients. That’s because with Tim and the flexibility of the Matrix coils, you can combine the coils in the vertical, as well as the left-right axis.
