EnhancedRadiology provides high quality radiological exams in a number of imaging modalities. Diagnostic studies are performed in a comfortable setting by caring, well trained technicians using the latest equipment.
MRI System and Open MRI scanners always developed for human who are anxious or obese or for examination of small parts of the body, such as the extremities knee, shoulder joint. In addition, some systems offer imaging in different positions and sequences of movements. The main technology of an open MRI machine is similar to that of a oldest MRI device. The major difference for the patient is that instead of lying in a narrow tunnel, the imaging table has more space around the body so that the magnet does not completely surround the person being tested.
Different types of MRI
Semi Open MRI
Semi open high field MRI scanners provide an ultra short bore (tunnel) and widely flared ends. In this type of MRI systems, patients lie with the head in the space outside the bore, if for example the hips are examined.
Open low field MRI machines have often a wide open design, e.g. an open C-arm scanner is shaped like two large discs separated by a large pillar. Patients have an open sided feeling and more space around them allows a wider range of positions.
Advanced Open MRI
Advanced open MRI scanners combine the advantages of both, the high field strength, newest gradient technology and wide open design. Even scans of patients in upright, weight-bearing positions are possible (e.g. Uprightâ„¢ MRI formerly Stand-Up MRI).
Open MRI allowing for quality MR magnetic resonance scanning services since August, 1998. Our aim is to give patients and their doctors the highest quality medical images along with the comfort and reassurance of being scanned in the latest generation MR systems.
