Vendors Supporting MRI Education

Vendors’ support when running educational events helps to provide a quality programme in quality venues. The interaction between industry and delegates provides networking opportunities for collaborative projects. Today it’s the turn of Esaote, Silver Sponsors of Kanal’s 3rd European MRSO/MRMD course to tell us their story.

Why do Esaote wish to sponsor Dr Kanal’s MRI Safety Training course?

Dr Emanuel Kanal is one of the world leaders in MRI safety and due to our unique products and partnership we felt it was important to raise the profile of MRI safety in this sector too, while also highlighting an alternative to the well-known whole body MRI systems.

What is your story?

Creativity in Healthcare” is Esaote’s motto which represents the philosophy that has been adopted by the low field Dedicated MRI product line since its inception in 1993, a year that marked the launch of the world’s first dedicated MRI scanner for extremities, Artoscan. From the outset the company has positioned itself as an innovator and has broadened its product offering, gaining recognition from both industry and the medical community as a pioneer in Dedicated MRI. For over four decades, Esaote has continued to maintain its leadership position in the Dedicated MRI segment because its products are focused on satisfying specific requirements that have not been met by the other imaging companies. Research and development activities are strongly driven by customer needs and by working very closely with users and clients, Esaote is able to respond to new market demands and expectations. The growing family of innovative dedicated MRI systems boasts common features such as ease of use and open ergonomic design that guarantees optimal patient comfort and cost effectiveness. The positive cost-benefit ratio that can be attributed to Esaote’s MRI systems is particularly attractive given the current economic climate of cost control faced by healthcare providers.

What do Esaote supply?

At Esaote, we specialise in dedicated compact MRI systems which fit in spaces as small as 3m x 4m, and feature low running costs and high image quality, all at very competitive prices. Esaote is celebrating 40 years of healthcare innovation and has launched the next generation Open MRI - the Magnifico Open - adding a whole-body MRI solution to its growing portfolio. Esaote's Open Musculoskeletal MR imaging systems provide clinicians with a wide range of applications for the knee, ankle, foot, hand, wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip & spine. Thanks to a combination of dedicated MSK sequences, advanced RF coils, better computing technology & optimised magnet homogeneity, Esaote MRI systems deliver high resolution MSK images with excellent acquisition times.

What will delegates find when they come to the Esaote stand?

Delegates will be able to discuss the new Magnifico Open scanner. They will also be able to view scan images to see the high resolution from our low field MRI.

Thank you and I believe you are planning an imaging quiz too…??. Thank you for all your support and we look forward to meeting the team in June.
