head first orientation in the direction of the magnet bore.

We recommend that patients, especially those suffering from
claustrophobia, are positioned with their feet toward the magnet
bore.
To obtain optimal image quality and a homogeneous fat
saturation, ensure the most isocentric position for the patient's

extremity to be examined.
Especially in areas with high B
technique provides for a more robust fat suppression than
spectral fat saturation. Protocols for both variants are included in
the Siemens protocol tree.

The increased SAR limits are activated in the First level controlled
operating mode. In this operating mode it should be ensured that
heat dissipation is not impaired by clothing or blankets.
