BioMatrix Beat Sensor Available for: MAGNETOM Vida, MAGNETOM Lumina Category: Standard for MAGNETOM Vida; Purchasable option for MAGNETOM Lumina Pre-requisites: BioMatrix Body 12 coil or BioMatrix Body 18 coil What is the BioMatrix Beat Sensor? Beat Sensor is a Siemens Healthineers unique break- BioMatrix Beat Sensor through technology which enables a complete cardiac for CMR exams without ECG MRI exam without ECG! BioMatrix Beat Sensor uses the heart’s own pulsatile motion as the triggering source, unlike ECG which only indirectly measures the onset of cardiac motion by detecting the electrical activity of the heart. Highlights and benefits: • The big benefit of BioMatrix Beat Sensor is that it eliminates the need to place electrodes on the patient and hence can speed up the workflow for CMR exams. • Technologists are happy because they don’t have to spend time shaving chest hair, using cleaning gel, and placing electrodes on patients. Beat Sensor Cardiac 63 min RR-1 94 945 ms • BioMatrix Beat Sensor triggering can also improve the patient experience especially for patients who have sensitive skin (e.g., allergic to cleaning gel) Beat Sensor triggering for ALL cardiac sequences: and/or feel uncomfortable when technologists place BEAT, BEAT_epi, BEAT_FQ, BEAT_FQ_nav, BEAT_map, the electrodes on their chests.
