Environmental impact is becoming a significant factor in the selection of suppliers even in preclinical imaging. The introduction of liquid helium free, high-end MRI systems by MR Solutions substantially reduces the environmental impact when compared to competitor units. The key factor is dispensing with the liquid helium bath which cools the magnet down in traditional systems to minus 269°C when it becomes superconducting and boosts the power of the magnet....

For once we can’t blame Brexit! There is a world shortage of Helium, the shortage of Helium is a natural phenomenon. Helium forms below the earth’s surface, formed from the slow radioactive alpha decay that occurs in rocks. Helium is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, non-toxic, inert, monatomic gas and is the first of the noble gas group on the periodic table of the elements. After Hydrogen, Helium has the second lowest atomic number # 2, it has the lowest boiling point of all the elements....
