SmartCOMFORT for patient-friendly MRI scans, with less noise or non-contrast imaging.
SmartSPEED to boost productivity, streamline workflow and enhance patient throughput with easy and fast operation.
SmartSPACE for a small footprint and flexible layout options.
SmartECO to minimise your power usage – reducing both your ecological and economical impact.

Welcome to the ECHELON Smart.
Make your MRI exams smarter.

SmartCOMFORT for exams that put your patients and operators at ease

ECHELON Smart makes the whole-body examination process more comfortable. For your patients that means silent scans without the need for earplugs or contrast injections. Meanwhile your operators benefit from automated exam processes - and remote application and service support around-the-clock.

Reduced noise levels decrease patient anxiety without prolonging scan time or compromising the image quality, thanks to SoftSound.
Image complex hemodynamics without injecting your patient with any contrast agents - via BeamSAT TOF or VASC-ASL, for angiography, perfusion and diffusion imaging.
User-friendly with various fully automated operations and easy-to-use functions.
Remote application support to help optimise protocols, train technicians - and control the entire exam online with SENTINEL™.
Remote maintenance support delivers automatic notification of anything suspicious via SENTINEL™ - maximising your uptime.
