Features

The BioSpec 152/11 is the ultimate in ultra-high-field MR imaging with unparalleled sensitivity for greatest resolution. Its streamlined design for mice studies makes handling simple, while its powerful software guarantees best results. It can be equipped with the MRI CryoProbe to increase sensitivity even further and together with the gradient strength of up to 1000 mT/m, highest resolution is achieved. It is built with nitrogen-free Ultra Shielded and helium Refrigerated (US/R) magnet technology for long service intervals

  • Nitrogen-free Ultra Shielded and helium Refrigerated (US/R) magnet technology with long service intervals
  • Full second and third order high power shim channels guarantee optimal performance for spectroscopy and imaging
  • Crisp and highly resolved images with native gradient strength of 740 mT/m, upgradable to 1000 mT/m
    Slew rate: 9000 T/m/s  
  • Scalable AVANCE NEO electronics enabling both MRI and MRS applications
  • Real-time spectrometer control for optimization of acquisition parameters during scan
  • MRI CryoProbe for exceptional increase in sensitivity
  • In-house development and production of all key components (software, magnet, gradient, spectrometer, RF coils) ensures the best performance
