OverviewThe SIGNA Sprint Select with Freelium is a purposefully helium-free 1.5T MRI scanner engineered to provide consistent diagnostic imaging while minimizing helium dependency and optimizing operational flexibility. The system pairs the Freelium sealed-magnet configuration with integrated SIGNA One Workflow Solutions to support automated, repeatable MRI examinations.
Key positioningSIGNA Sprint Select with Freelium is intended for routine clinical use and advanced applications at 1.5T where helium independence, installation flexibility, and workflow automation are required to support departmental throughput and uptime.
At a glance- Freelium sealed magnet for helium independence and vent-less installation
- Designed magnet homogeneity and high SNR for reliable diagnostic imaging
- Integrated SIGNA One Workflow Solutions for automation and consistency
- Vent-less installation option to support diverse facility environments
Features and benefits- Helium independence: Freelium sealed-magnet technology eliminates the need for external helium top-up or quench pipe installation.
- Image performance: Magnet homogeneity and high signal-to-noise ratio across routine and advanced clinical protocols to support diagnostic confidence.
- Installation flexibility: Vent-less design reduces site preparation and enables deployment in locations with restricted infrastructure.
- Operational autonomy: Intelligent sensors and remote monitoring capabilities improve uptime and reduce on-site service interventions.
- Recoverability: Auto ramp-up/ramp-down and magnet management support faster recovery after power interruptions.
- Workflow integration: SIGNA One provides predictive UI, in-room camera/console and an auto-docking table to reduce rescans and improve throughput.
