Manufacturers of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technology rely on Bird's RF expertise and test equipment for their research, development and field calibration of MRI equipment.
The MRI3T Kit is a specialized tool designed to be used by trained professionals with experience in MRI technology.
Bird's MRI3T Kit is trusted by major MRI manufacturers for field calibration of 1.5T and 3T systems.
Field technicians depend on the kit to be reliable, efficient, and easy to use so hospitals and labs experience minimal downtime and systems are ensured to be safe and accurate for patient imaging.
Bird Thruline® technology ensures precise RF power measurement from all MRI amps.
The MRI3T Kit includes everything a technician needs to perform measurements.
The 5000-NG Display with RF Meter provides results on screen to eliminate operator errors.
Accuracy of RF power measurements delivered during clinical MRI testing ensures safety and regulatory compliance. Under strict safety guidelines, this ensures that patients are scanned safely in both 1.5T and 3T systems and that no RF burns occur.
Technicians can have confidence when performing MRI safety measurements and test the accuracy of the specific absorption rate over the range of operating conditions encountered in MRI.
The 5014M Sensor and elements of the MRI3T Kit should be calibrated by the Bird Service Center at least once per year to ensure accuracy and performance. We also verify the components of the entire Kit to make sure everything is working as it should.
