BIOGRAPH One is designed to support one patient-centric pathway to personalized care. By seamlessly integrating PET and MR into one comprehensive exam, it will support clinicians from diagnosis and staging, through a personalized therapy decision to regular therapy assessments to excel precision and support one streamlined approach.
BIOGRAPH One is designed to excel in PET/MR precision to support confident diagnostic decisions. Featuring the Optiso UDR Pro detector with the largest 35 cm axial FOV2 in PET/MR, it is designed to enable comprehensive capture with excellent sensitivity and ultra-fast TOF3 in real time – delivering clear, detailed images.
Study-ID: 2aaaa3347
Planned with Deep Resolve for accelerated acquisition and improved resolution in 2D and 3D applications4, BIOGRAPH One has the potential to make PET/MR exams faster than ever before. Designed with a powerful 3T magnet

PET/MRI Combo Wins FDA Approval
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Friday approved the Siemens Biograph mMR system for use in the United States. It’s the first device approved to simultaneously perform a positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan in the US.
PET/computer tomography (CT) scanners are well known. But the new machine has several advantages over PET/CT, the FDA says, including “simultaneous imaging, reduced radiation dos, and increased soft tissue contrast.

"The Siemens PET/MRI system allows two tests to run simultaneously without having to move the patient to a different scanning system," Alberto Gutierrez, Ph.D., director of the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety in the FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health. "Minimizing changes in a patient's position between tests allows physicians to compare images more easily and helps them get t

Biograph mMRSimultaneous MR and PET imaging.
Biograph mMR sets a new standard. As the only system that can simultaneously acquire MR and PET data across the whole body, it is a tremendous leap forward in imaging capabilities. Opening new doors in the diagnosis and understanding of disease. Fully supporting you from detection and planning through monitoring and follow-up.
High precision by true simultaneity: a comprehensive diagnostic picture in only one scan
Biograph mMR shows MR and PET data in virtually seamless spatial alignment. In addition, the MR acquisition can be used to correct for motion-related effects in PET, greatly improving image quality.
Spatial alignment
- Precise alignment of MR and PET through simultaneous acquisition
- One frame of reference
- Minimal motion artifacts
- Exact spatial registration
Minimizing the effects of motion
- Biograph mMR helps eliminate motion effects
- Brilliant MR and PET images through gating tools that freeze motion
- MR
