Tim Whole Body Suite
MAGNETOM Symphony, A TimSystem features a uniquetelescopic patient table whichenables a full Field-of-View ofup to 200 cm, without increas-ing total system length. Noadditional table extension isrequired.
The table top has standardlength. For Whole-Body examsthe table simply travels furtherout at the rear side of the mag-net. Table movement to its fullextent can be controlled fromthe operator console.
The large FoV helps in imagingmetastases with sequences suchas TIRM (Turbo InversionRecovery). Whole-Body MRAngiography is possible on theentire volume with iPAT.
Max. scan range of 200 cm
Protocols and programs for
Whole-Body MR Angiographyand metastases detection

iPAT Extensions (integrated Parallel Acquisition Techniques)
iPAT2 allows iPAT in 2 directionssimultaneously (phase-encoding direction and 3Ddirection for 3D sequences)
By applying PAT in 2 directionssimultaneously, the effectivePAT factor can be maximized,and PAT applications are
extended.Typical clinical applicationsare MR Angiography orultrafast isotropic T1-weighted3D imaging of the head.
CISS & DESS
Unique Siemens sequencesand protocols
3D DESS
(Double Echo Steady State):
T2/ T1-weighted
Excellent fluid-cartilagedifferentiation in orthopedicimaging
3D CISS
(Constructive Interference inSteady State):

nerves High resolution imaging of
inner ear and spine

Automatic slice planning:no manual adjustments ofslice positioning necessary
Reproducibility: reviews allhead images in the sameposition and orientation
Follow-up: reapplies exactlythe same image position as inprevious examinations(supported by the Phoenixtechnique)
syngo Security
Security package for generalregulatory security rules
The option supports customersto achieve compliance withHIPAA (Health Insurance andAccountability Act).
User authentication
Restricts access to functionsand data through privilegesand permissions
Logs relevant data securityinformation in audit trail
MPPS
DICOM Modality PerformedProcedure Steps (MPPS) allowscommunication of informationabout the examinationsfrom the MR system to aninformation system (such asRIS systems). MPPS enablesprovision of data for billing,documentation and planningpurposes to an informationsystem.
