Bremen Central, a German private radiology practice offering MRI, nuclear medicine and PET/CT, has ordered a Siemens Biograph mMR.

This represents the first use of the system by a private practice for routine patient exams, according to the Erlangen, Germany-based Siemens. The first four Biograph mMR systems have been installed in university hospitals and research centers.

At the group practice in Bremen, Germany, nuclear physicians and radiologists will share use of the Biograph mMR system to examine patients for oncological and neurological diseases.
