- Today I have a special guest with me, Benny Lawton. We want to give you a short insight on the MAGNETOM Free.Max. We going to walk through with you the hardware, some coils and show some amazing images from this scanner.
Tune in, join me, and also remember to check out and support my PATREON here: / bacmri
Thanks for watching, following and support.

nice video back, do u use deep resolve gain or shrp on this sequences ?
Gain and sharp
👍🏻
Would you be able to compare it with the Altea for example?
Why to choose a 0.55T scanner ?
Thank you
Unfortunately I can’t say much. I don’t have much experience with this scanner yet nor altea. For further information please contact your local siemens. They have guarantee a good answer to this.
I would say cost for purchasing this. Less wire, smaller foot print and weight. Uses less Helium will save you money.
can you explain the technique of 0,7 helium please

Great video. The only issue with this magnet is Referring Physicians was 1.5 and 3t. Mainly 3T. Idk is there is really a market for this. Physician’s don’t even want the 1.2 open. I love Siemens but i think this will be a hard sell. Btw how long is the bore.
thanks for the comment. you can read more about the free max here with nice illustrations. clinical-mri.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Biber_System-Architecture_MAGNETOM_Flash_78_ISMRM_2021.pdf . i must admit i had in my mind same thoughts as you, until i testet the scanner. read more about it and what/why/how this was made for. i didnt understand the whole picture to begin with. but there are many cons for why a scanner like this should exist. speaking about where i work today, i dont think this scanner will suit our needs, but for other countries with less access, costs, etc it will be very beneficial for those. in the end, i find it very cool there are variations of scanner available, but also its packed with the latest innovations.
@@Nguyen_MRI i will definitely look into it. It also makes sense now. As you said in other country’s. They can use it because they usually buy our old magnets. 💪🏼
@@rhrm1710 exactly. Was so confused in the beginning. Really 0.55T why? But then yeah ☺️👍
@@Nguyen_MRI love the vids. Keep them coming. 😁
@@rhrm1710 thanks ☺️👍
Since it is only using 0.55T. Would you consider it to be ideal for imaging pt. with implants or even suspicious foreign body such as a gunshot?
Yes I’ve seen many cases from this scanner when they imaging implants. It’s helpful in those situation having a low field strength but yet packed with the newest innovation.
nice. any indication about price?
Thanks.
I’m also wondering about that. I guess the local siemens can answer on that.
I can only assume that it would be cheaper than 1.5T MRI’s due to less wire, weight of metal and helium. I think Siemens are pitching it to healthcare providers that can not afford the more expensive 1.5T or 3T systems. It makes sense if you think that this systems can be installed in remote areas where it is inaccessible by road. The system doesn’t require a lot of Helium if it quenches.
We need protocols for this series and is DRB available for free max and if it available it effect on times and resolution like 3 T
👍 I'm sure local siemens can provide help. Yes Drb available on this ☺️
Thanks , but i want to ask is drb increase resolution and decrease the time like 3 t or 1.5t
@@wisamnd2887 yes, deep resolve boost can do that.
What are the limitations of this scanner? Can it get all coils? Bodyimaging? Long bones?
As far as I know it’s all the coils you see there. I would have take further contact with siemens for proper answer to your question.
They also have image examples they can show you.
Great video. I have been researching this FreeMax and I have a question. why is the standard size of the MRI machine 60 cm and how can they expand it to 80 cm? If you know why or have any scientific papers on this, please send them to me. thanks very much
Thanks. I don’t have the answer to this. I think a direct question to siemens Healthineers will be able to give you a correct answer.
Maybe there is less wire required 66% less. They could have used 60cm and overall height is decreased.
The larger the bore, the harder it is to get a uniform magnetic field, so I assume that 60cm as a compromise between good field quality and fitting a human in the scanner
@@caldersheagren I think the industry pick 60cm as standard to start. Then as more and more obese patients couldn’t fit in 60 cm, the 70 cm came to cater for the obese patients. Isn’t the free max 80cm?
Can I buy this an a private individual with no licenses?
Please contact local siemens for further information. Thanks.
would you take this over a 60cm 1.5T Sempra?
good question, but i dont have an answer to this. it depends on so many factors. kind of patients group you have. amount of patients. what scanner you already have. budget etc.
@@Nguyen_MRI I'm looking at this for an imaging center that is not specialised in a certain one area, or it is a research center. it should serve as an general purpose MRI. I'm asking mostly because you must be one of the few persons that got their hands on multiple machines and it is not a seller. because you know how sellers are :) the best machine is the one they need it sold to get to target :). so my question is more to get your opinion. I don't expect a 3 words reply, things rarely being so straight fwd in any area tangent to MRI :)
prices are similar. in somewhat standard trim (software options, coils and so on) both sempra 1.5T (60cm bore) 600k EURO (plus taxes) and the freemax 0.55T a bit more
@@9-and-3well I only used it a few hours as test. Very surprised by the quality and not only that. It’s packed with the latest features of compressed sensing, deep resolve AI and much more. So it really delivers good quality images for being a low field scanner. ☺️true Im no seller, I like to share honest experiencesz. Nonetheless, I hope you make the right choice for your site and patients. Wish you the best.
With that said. I’ve seen many nice images from this scanner on the social media.
What's the weight limit for this scanner?
320 kg

What is the price of this??
I’m also wondering. Please contact local siemens for further information.
Is deep resolve ( boost) available for free max?
Yes correct. Its packed with all the latest.
Why you didn’t make video for free max protocols?
@@wisamnd2887 it’s not easy to make a video of all the protocols available on that scanner.
We need pd fs for msk please 😔
But i read in the company website the boost only for lumina, vida, vida fit is that right?
Can you give me the parameters of pd f.s? I have a free max 0.55 t , Thank you
Unfortunately I don’t have the parameters. This was done at the training center in Erlangen.
How I can get the training ?
And why I don’t have more than gain in deep resolve in 0.55 t , my device have only gain .
@@wisamnd2887 you need to talk to the local siemens. They can guide you to proper application teaching.
@@wisamnd2887 probably don’t have the boost. Ask local siemens and see what’s in the software package of your scanner.
Giá máy bao nhiêu vậy anh?
Unfortunately I don’t have the numbers. Please contact local siemens for further information.
Vân ạ. Anh quê ở việt nam phải không
@@trongthucbui2060 yes but can’t write much Vietnamese.
An mri without a quench pipe?!
no quench pipe
