Siemens, Lammers align to deliver MR diagnostics incubator

Siemens Healthcare has joined with Lammers Medical Technology (LMT) to offer the nomag IC MR diagnostics incubator system for the transport of newborns and premature babies as an add-on to Siemens’ 1.5T and 3T MR systems.

The nomag IC enables newborns and premature babies to be examined after birth with MRI. The incubator facilitates transport from the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to the MRI department with an MR-conditional trolley, MR-conditional gas and power supply, and attendant conditional accessories, according to Malvern, Pa.-based Siemens.

The nomag IC is compatible with Siemens’ Magnetom Tim Symphony, Magnetom Avanto, Magnetom Espree and Magnetom Area 1.5T systems as well as Siemens’ Magnetom Trio with Tim, Magnetom Verio and Magnetom Skyra 3T units.
