BioMatrix Beat Sensor for CMR exams without ECG2
BioMatrix Beat Sensor enables users to perform CMR exams without ECG. This break-through technology uses the heart's own pulsile motion to trigger the exam. The result is faster CMR exams and improved patient experience.
Ever wonder how break-through technology is developed?
Cardiovascular applications
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is the gold standard for evaluating myocardial function, volumes, and scar. CMR is unique in its ability to provide tissue characterization for differential diagnosis of myocardial disease. Recent guidelines also include indications for CMR in congenital heart disease, heart failure, and coronary artery disease (CAD).3

Compressed Sensing enables diagnostic imaging quality, even for patients with arrhythmias and those unable to hold their breath.
It supports segmented Cine imaging, offering high spatial and temporal resolution in brief breath-holds. Additionally, the Compressed Sensing real-time technique ensures high-quality imaging during free-breathing. These advancements significantly accelerate cardiac scans, boost efficiency, and broaden the range of patients eligible for Cardiac MRI.
PSIR HeartFreeze4
HeartFreeze, with motion compensation algorithms, enables high-resolution Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) imaging in free-breathing.
This technology extends the benefits of detailed viability assessments to patients with arrhythmias or those unable to hold their breath.

myExam Cardiac Assist is a unique offering from Siemens Healthineers which enables comprehensive Cardiac MR examinations in under 30 minutes.
This highly automated tool leverages AI-powered algorithms like AutoAlign to facilitate automatic planning of all cardiac views, ensuring standardized and reproducible cardiac scans. With its step-by-step guidance, myExam Cardiac Assist simplifies the complexities of cardiac exams. It can be used alone or in combination with AutoMate Cardiac1.
BioMatrix Beat Sensor2
BioMatrix Beat Sensor enables users to perform CMR exams without ECG. This break-through technology uses the heart's own pulsile motion to trigger the exam. The result is faster CMR exams and improved patient experience.
Dedicated CMR appliactions
High Bandwidth Inversion Recovery
High Bandwidth Inversion Recovery (HBIR) significantly improves the quality of CMR imaging in patients prone to susceptivity artefacts. This advanced sequence employs wideband techniques to minimize distortions, which enhances tissue characterization for optimal imaging of myocardial injuries.
HBIR is particularly valuable as it extends high-quality diagnostic capabilities to patients prone to metal artefacts and thereby expands the potential for accurate disease management and diagnosis.
MyoMaps
MyoMaps facilitates pixel-based quantification of myocardial tissue, aiding in the differential diagnosis of myocardial diseases. When used in conjunction with HeartFreeze, our motion correction algorithm, MyoMaps enables the inline generation of T1, T2, and T2* colored parametric maps.
4D Flow
Flow quantification provides crucial insights into cardiac hemodynamics and function. ECG-triggered 2D phase contrast imaging enables non-invasive, quantitative assessment of blood flow. With retrospective reconstruction, full heart cycle coverage is achieved, allowing comprehensive analysis.
Our enhanced 4D Flow acquisition offers complete volumetric coverage, significantly improving the orientation and visualization of blood flow and velocity throughout the heart and thorax. This technical advancement facilitates the detailed analysis of key hemodynamic parameters over the entire cardiac cycle.
MR Angiography
myExam Angio Assist
myExam Angio Assist facilitates the acquisition of optimally timed contrast images through interactive bolus timing.
This technology ensures consistent timing of the contrast agent for each angiography examination. It enables reliable imaging results, providing precise information to referring physicians and ensuring consistent, optimized kinetic timing for reading and reporting MR angiography cases.
QISS
QISS technology provides an accurate non-contrast alternative for visualizing arterial disease, especially in patients where contrast agents are contraindicated or those with renal dysfunction.
QISS MRA is an easy-to-use approach for imaging peripheral arteries and contributes to patient safety by reducing the need for contrast agents and the associated risks.
