Philips liquid-free helium magnetic resonance Ingenia Ambition passed NMPA certification

The industry’s first fully sealed magnet NMR for more efficient helium-free operation

• Ingenia Ambition combines a completely sealed BlueSeal magnet technology and innovative workflow to achieve a disruptive breakthrough in the field of magnetic resonance 

• Ingenia Ambition, as a new member of the Philips MRI family, integrates a fully digital system and medical information services to achieve more Good diagnosis and treatment results, lower cost of care, and enhance the experience of patients and medical staff

•Ingenia Ambition represents Philips’ world-leading innovation accumulation and rich development in the field of magnetic resonance, which is a milestone in Philips’ century of innovation history

Beijing On June 20, 2020, Philips (China) announced that its world's first liquid-free helium magnetic resonance Ingenia Ambition has passed the National Drug Administration (NMPA) certification and is officially listed on the Chinese market. This product pioneered the use of Blueseal technology to fundamentally avoid the risk of "quenching" of magnetic resonance, and achieved a disruptive breakthrough in the field of magnetic resonance.

Chen Shengyu, vice president of Philips Greater China and general manager of the precision diagnosis business group, said: "MRI provides excellent diagnosis and treatment guidance functions, but due to the installation, floor space and service requirements, it also puts forward a request for the hospital or imaging center. Huge operational requirements. We are honored to introduce Ingenia Ambition to the Chinese market to better serve the Chinese medical system, including smaller, lighter, and more flexible installation space. This will help our customers reduce operating costs and improve Patient experience."

No liquid helium consumption to avoid the risk of "quenching"; no venue restrictions to expand application scenarios

The magnet is the most important component of magnetic resonance, and the static magnetic field generated by it plays a key role in imaging. At present, low-temperature superconducting magnets are used for the magnetic resonance of more than 1.5T on the market. It is necessary to immerse the magnet in 1500-2000L of liquid helium to ensure that it is in a stable superconducting state. If it is improperly operated during installation and operation, liquid helium leaks or a large amount of evaporation will occur, causing the magnet to quench, resulting in danger to life and huge economic losses.

In addition, liquid helium is a scarce resource in my country and almost 100% depends on imports. Today, with a large number of applications of magnetic resonance, how to reduce the use and loss of liquid helium, reduce the cost of hospitals, and ensure the safety of life and property are not only the pain points of the technical development of the magnetic resonance industry, but also have extremely important strategic significance for the national resource import reserve.

Philips liquid-free helium magnetic resonance Ingenia Ambition redefines "magnetic resonance" by reshaping magnets, gradients, and radio frequency systems. This product uses Blueseal technology for the first time, completely encapsulating 7L liquid helium in a container and forming it in one time. While maintaining the superconducting state of the magnet, it achieves zero consumption of liquid helium, thus completely eliminating the risk of "quenching" of magnetic resonance. Promote the development of magnetic resonance equipment into a new era.

As a "never quench" magnetic resonance, Philips liquid-free helium magnetic resonance Ingenia Ambition does not need to install quenching tube, the weight of the whole machine is more than 1 ton less than other traditional magnetic resonance, can be installed on any floor and any department, greatly expanded The application scenarios and fields of magnetic resonance can better meet the needs of diagnosis and reduce the cost of equipment installation and maintenance.

Digital integrated solution shortens inspection time and facilitates accurate diagnosis

Philips Ingenia Ambition is the newest member of the Philips Ingenia MRI "family" and is equipped with all-digital systems, medical informatics and a series of professional services covering the entire life cycle of equipment. Driven by these integrated solutions, the pure anatomical structure of MR examination has developed to precise pathological stratification, from qualitative image to quantitative presentation, providing medical staff with a faster, smarter and simpler way to achieve precision Diagnose, assist experts in clinical and scientific research.

At the same time, Philips liquid-free helium magnetic resonance Ingenia Ambition applies whole-body full-sequence compressed sensing technology, which not only shortens the examination time by 50%, but also ensures the quality of the image, allowing medical institutions to provide nuclear magnetism for more patients in a limited time Scanning, saving patient waiting time.

Philips is an innovative leader in the global nuclear magnetic field. Since the beginning of magnetic resonance imaging research in the Dutch Central Laboratory in 1973, Philips has continued to introduce revolutionary practical technologies on the road of exploration and innovation. It has many industry firsts and has greatly promoted the development of magnetic resonance technology. For example: In 2008, Philips released the industry’s first 3.0T magnetic resonance with multi-source emission technology; in 2012, it released the world’s first all-digital magnetic resonance… Philips liquid-free helium magnetic resonance Ingenia Ambition was born, reflecting Philips’ The leading innovation accumulation and accumulation in the field of magnetic resonance is a milestone in Philips' century of innovation history.
