Superconducting MRI Magnets
High / Very High Field Strengths
Our high / very high field compact superconducting magnets are smaller, lighter, and help to deliver a more economical MRI system, whilst maintaining the gold-standard of imaging quality expected by clinicians.
Asymmetric / Symmetric Design Options
Magnetica's compact superconducting magnets are designed using our asymmetric magnet IP. Shifting the imaging zone towards the patient chair/bed improves patient comfort by reducing how far the limb or head being imaged needs to be moved into the MRI system.
Conduction / Cryogen Cooled Options
A conduction cooled magnet removes the need for a life-long liquid helium supply chain and a vent pipe (required to exhaust gaseous helium to atmosphere when cryogen-cooled magnets quench).
Magnetica has key engineering design capabilities and experience that allows development of high-performance superconducting MRI magnets, with a focus upon compact magnets for dedicated applications utilising:
- Symmetric and asymmetric (patent protected) designs;
- Helium free (conduction-cooled) and traditional cryogen-cooled technologies;
- High and very high field strengths; and
- Unique and bespoke designs.
Our design methodologies:
- manage stresses within compact dimensions;
- lower manufacturing costs;
- prevents quenches; and
- ensure magnet safety.
