The ability of MRI device systems to perform high-resolution imaging depends on the correct operation of coil units, one of the most commonly used accessories. These coils directly affect the image quality by detecting magnetic signals from certain parts of the body. Therefore, the points to be considered in the use of MRI coils and a strong service support infrastructure are of great importance for the uninterrupted and safe operation of the system.
Unlike standard imaging processes, the use of MRI coils requires careful placement and appropriate patient positioning. If the coil is not placed correctly on the patient or a coil that is not compatible with the device is used, signal losses may occur. This may lead to both the need for re-examination and a decrease in diagnostic accuracy. The strength of the connection points, especially in multi-piece coil systems, should be checked frequently.
Such critical situations require both being careful in daily use and providing a sustainable system with professional technical support. Damage that may occur to the cables, connectors and outer coating of the coil during the use process affects the overall performance of the device. For this reason, service support solutions should include preventive maintenance applications as well as rapid troubleshooting.
The most common situations encountered within the scope of service support are: signal loss, coil not being recognized error, image interference and mechanical deformations. While the technical service detects these problems; if necessary, it performs software updates and, if necessary, provides replacement with support components such as x-ray spare parts. Although it is not directly exposed to x-ray radiation, it is important to protect it from environmental effects since it works in the same room in some systems.
Since MR coil systems are frequently used in clinical environments integrated with computerized tomography, tomography, x-ray or open MRI machines, technical compatibility with these devices also becomes an important part of service support. System integrity must be ensured in order to prevent technical problems such as integration problems, data loss or signal conflict.
As Anod, we provide both user training and comprehensive service support solutions for your MR coil systems. Our experienced technical staff analyzes each component of the coil in detail and detects performance losses before they occur. In addition, we minimize operator-related problems with the training of user personnel.
While Anode ensures that your coil systems operate at maximum efficiency, it also extends the life of your device with fast service interventions, original parts supply and periodic maintenance planning. The success of your MR systems begins with coil health.
