Throwback Feature: Philips Panorama HFO 1.0T MRI De-Installation

Today we’re taking a moment to look back at a project from a few months ago that highlights our team’s expertise and professionalism. The project involved the de-installation of a 2013 Philips Panorama HFO 1.0 Tesla MRI system, a model widely respected for its patient-friendly design and reliable imaging technology.

About the Philips Panorama HFO 1.0T

The Panorama HFO 1.0T stands out among open MRI systems for its unique combination of comfort and performance. Key features include:

  • 360° panoramic view for an open, patient-friendly experience

  • Wide 63 x 17.7-inch patient aperture

  • Patient visibility outside the magnet, reducing claustrophobia

  • Lateral tabletop movement for ease of positioning

  • Magnetic Resonance Workspace for efficient workflow

  • Advanced gradient system for high-quality imaging

  • Open Wave digital data capture platform

  • 8-channel capability for expanded diagnostic options

These features made the system popular in facilities looking to balance advanced imaging with patient comfort.

The De-Installation Process

Removing an MRI system like the Panorama HFO 1.0T requires careful planning, rigging, and coordination. From handling the magnet and electronics to navigating the tight spaces of a medical facility, every step must be executed with precision. Our team worked closely with experienced riggers to ensure the system was carefully dismantled, transported, and cleared from the site with safety and efficiency as top priorities.

Why It Matters

De-installing advanced imaging equipment is just as important as installation. Facilities rely on partners who understand the complexity of these systems and can guarantee smooth transitions—whether replacing equipment, upgrading, or relocating. Our familiarity with the Philips Panorama HFO 1.0T allows us to give clients the confidence that their systems will be managed with the highest level of care.
