MAGNETOM Combi Suite Neurosurgery combines premium MRI technology with state-of-the art OR solutions. Resulting in highly detailed image quality, safe, efficient patient set-up and -transport, as well as cost-effective and flexible solutions for siting and OR tables.

MRI guidance in neurosurgery can significantly improve the management of brain tumor patients:

  • Revealing residual tumor in 65% of patients in an intraoperative setting.1
  • Maximizing the extent of resection,improving patient survival by up to 55%.1
  • Helping to achieve five times more total resections, compared to white-light surgery.2

Excellence in imaging

MRI-guided neurosurgery with MAGNETOM Aera and MAGNETOM Skyra. Siemens´ top-of-the line MRI systems for optimizing your neurosurgical procedures – before, during and after surgery. For example, better access and more satisfied patients due to 70 cm Open Bore, short system length, and light-weight coils.

Flexibility in neurosurgery

Flexible neurosurgery options with a choice of compatible OR Tables.

  • Choice of two different OR Tables5
  • Compatible head holders with 8 channel coils5
  • Head holders easily positioned on transfer board, extending beyond the OR table
  • Greater flexibility in head positioning with up to 55 mm below the transfer board

Effectiveness in operation

Easy siting and integration of MRI systems with different room solutions.

With their small footprints, MAGNETOM Aera and MAGNETOM Skyra are easy to site and quickly integrated in your intraoperative setting.

Being a complete, yet flexible solution, MAGNETOM Combi Suite Neurosurgery provides great versatility to fit your needs and ensures optimal use of your facilities.

  • Two-room siting scenario: Combine one operating room with one MR room open for routine diagnostics.
  • Three-room siting scenario Possibility to have two operating rooms combined with one MR room open for routine diagnostics.

Uso Clínico

nexaris MR allows for MRI in the Neuro-OR setting with a smooth patient transfer to and from the MRI system. Intraoperative MR imaging provides valuable information that might change your surgical strategy.

MAGNETOM Aera
nexaris MR can be configured with MAGNETOM Aera.

Top-of-the-line MRI systems and OR tables

nexaris MR can be configured to your needs: You can integrate MAGNETOM Aera or MAGNETOM Skyra the OR table of choice: The dedicated solution is compatible with both MAQUET and TRUMPF surgical tables.
