PHILIPS (Netherlands) Achieva 3 T ultra-high-field MR tomography scanner
The Achieva 3 T system represents a generation of high field strength MR scanners. The scanner is designed with the unique Philips Freedom Technology, which allows to perform a variety of studies: from central nervous system, musculoskeletal and abdominal imaging to functional and cardiac studies, contrast angiography and spectroscopic imaging. The tomograph is equipped with a set of specialised MR coils, including a multifunctional coil for joint studies. There is also a module for ECG and pulse acquisition integrated into the tomograph.
PHILIPS Ingenia 1.5 Tesla High Field MR Tomograph
The Philips Ingenia system enables advanced MR imaging techniques, setting new standards in clinical research for imaging at a field strength of 1.5 Tesla, based on a new gradient and RF signal structure. The Ingenia system provides high quality imaging and is equipped with a complete set of specialised MR coils and pulse sequences (Head Coil, Shoulder Coil, Breast Coil, Body Coil, Elbow Coil). In addition, there is a module for ECG and pulse acquisition integrated into the tomograph, as well as a set for presenting audiovisual stimuli to fMRI subjects with synchronised feedback from Nordic Neurolab
The head coil is designed for highly detailed visualisation of brain structures and is often used in neuroradiology and in the study of cerebrovascular pathologies.
The breast coil is specially designed for MR mammography and allows detecting tumours and other pathological changes with high accuracy.
The coil for the shoulder joint provides a clear image of soft tissues, bone structures and ligamentous apparatus of the shoulder, is used in the diagnosis of trauma and degenerative changes.
The body coil is used for overview imaging of thoracic, abdominal and pelvic organs, suitable for a wide range of examinations.
The elbow coil provides detailed visualisation of all elements of the joint, including cartilage, tendons and nerves, which is important in the diagnosis of sports injuries.
This coil design allows for imaging of multiple anatomical regions, including joints.
Medrad Ulrich Contrast Injectors
These automated contrast delivery systems provide precise, controlled administration of contrast agents for enhanced imaging during MRI and multi-slice CT (MSCT) studies. Their programmable injection protocols ensure optimal contrast timing and consistent bolus delivery for improved diagnostic image quality.
The BrainVision 128-channel MR-compatible encephalograph
The BrainVision 128-channel MR-compatible encephalograph is a high-tech system for synchronous recording of electroencephalography (EEG) during functional MRI, ensuring accurate recording of neurophysiological signals without artefacts from the magnetic field. The device is equipped with fibre optic cables and active shielded electrodes, minimising interference and ensuring patient safety. BrainVision supports integration with neuroimaging platforms, enabling comprehensive studies in cognitive neuroscience

The CompuFlow 1000 MR pump system from Shelley Medical Imaging Technologies (Canada)
The CompuFlow 1000 MR pump from Shelley Medical Imaging Technologies (Canada) is used for studies using blood flow modelling in norm and pathology in the range of volume velocities: 0.1 - 35 ml/sec. Included with the pump are models of the common carotid bifurcation (normal and with 70% stenosis), model of the internal carotid artery, models of the circle of Willis (normal and with giant aneurysm), model of the abdominal aorta (see below). They are used to study blood flow, pressure and turbulence in the context of stenoses, aneurysms or anatomical anomalies.
The Abdominal Aortic silicone model
The Abdominal Aortic Phantom is an abdominal silicone model with replaceable renal arteries designed for haemodynamic studies of pathologies. In particular, pathologies such as atherosclerotic renal artery stenoses, abdominal aortic aneurysms and fibromuscular dysplasia can be studied.
Carotid bifurcation silicone model
Carotid bifurcation phantom - an anatomical model reproducing the division of the common carotid artery into external and internal branches, used for haemodynamic studies and medical education. It allows the analysis of blood flow in areas of constriction to assess the risk of stroke, to study atherosclerotic lesions and their effect on flow turbulence.
Right internal carotid silicone model
The phantom of the right internal carotid artery with giant aneurysms is a specialised anatomical model designed to study complex cerebrovascular pathologies, investigate associated haemodynamic changes, test treatments and train neurosurgical/endovascular interventions.
Anterior and Posterior Circulation silicone model with Anterior Connective Artery Aneurysm
This anatomical model reproduces the Circle of Willis with detailed anterior (carotid) and posterior (vertebrobasilar) blood supply systems. The modular design allows the study of haemodynamics both in normal and in the presence of aneurysms. It is possible to simulate the risk of rupture, compression syndrome, to analyse the state of the anterior connecting artery in stroke, as well as to practice endovascular surgical interventions
