Shim Camera

The Passive Shim Camera is an essential tool for installing MRI systems that require passive shimming. By accurately measuring the magnetic field, this comprehensive kit allows engineers to add thin metal plates inside the passive shim tray to create magnetic field homogeneity. The kit includes a PT2026 teslameter, combined with dedicated Camera Software & Hardware, an MFC2046 Upgrade Conversion Kit, and a half-moon probe array, available for both 1.5T and 3.0T systems. The system is completed by user-friendly conversion software that streamlines the shimming process and a specialized shim tray puller for safe and efficient handling of shim trays. By employing the Passive Shim Camera, MRI engineers can achieve a flawless workflow.
