Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

 

We Have the latest Machine for detailed Scan with lower cost. The machine details are following

MAGNETOM ESSENZA

Established 1.5T performance. With Tim+Dot.

  • More productivity. With Tim+Dot. An easier, faster, and more efficient approach to highest and consistent image quality.
  • More applications. From head to toe. More standard and advanced applications than ever before to broaden your clinical scope.
  • More confidence. Through sustainable value. A solid and reassuring cost-structure defines the economic success of this 1.5T scanner.

 

Use of this machine in Spine Surgery

Easy patient setup and state-of-the-art imaging performance for C-Spine, T-Spine, L-Spine, and Whole Spine.

High-res 2D, advanced 3D, and different Fat Saturation techniques are simply standard for MAGNETOM ESSENZA, and part of the clinical use of our established performer. Further benefits in Spine imaging with MAGNETOM ESSENZA are:

  • No more manual coil repositioning with Tim (Total Imaging Matrix)
  • A large Field of View (FoV) coverage and state-of-the-art iPAT performance for an easy and streamlined workflow
  • Excellent signal-to noise ratio (SNR) and no need for coil positioning, due to the IsoCenter Matrix coil intrinsically being at the right position
  • A great level of detail regardless of the patient’s condition or anatomy
  • A scan range up to 140 cm without repositioning, seamless scan integration, and automated post processing.
  • Brain

  • Brain with Contrast

  • Whole Spine Screening

  • Cervical Spine

  • Thoracic Spine

  • Dorsal Spine

  • Lumbar Spine

  • Pelvis

  • Hip

  • Chest

  • Shoulder

  • Knee

  • Foot

  • Ankle

  • Femur

  • Tibia

  • MARS MRI (Metal Artifact Reduction Sequences MRI)

    • We have special sequences that allow us to perform MRI scans of joints even with metal and instrumentation, e.g. following total hip and knee replacements, etc.

MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It is a noninvasive diagnostic procedure that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce a clear and detailed digital image of the human anatomy. By conducting an MRI scan, physicians can detect and identify a number of medical conditions in their early stages and therefore increase the likelihood of recovery.

Is an MRI safe?

Yes, getting an MRI scan is very safe. Unlike CAT scans, this diagnostic imaging method does not involve any exposure to radiation. In fact, there are no known side effects related to MRI scans. However, because it does involve exposure to a strong magnetic field, patients with certain devices like pacemakers and other implants cannot get an MRI

How long does the scan take?

MRI scans can typically last between 30 minutes and two hours. However, depending on the type of study, there are instances when the procedure duration can be even shorter with a more detailed MRI such as a 3 Tesla MRI.

The patient is required to lie still while the machine takes a series of pictures. Each series normally takes about 15 minutes to complete.

Can I talk during the exam?

Though you will need to remain still, you will be able to communicate with the technician at various intervals. You are free to ask questions and answer any questions addressed to you.

Will the exam cause any pain?

Absolutely not. You will not feel any pain during the MRI scan. Because you must remain motionless, you may experience some slight discomfort.

Will I feel claustrophobic during the exam?

If you are prone to claustrophobia, make sure you tell your physician ahead of time. There are two kinds of MRI machines: open MRI machines and closed MRI machines. The closed unit completely envelopes the patient during the scan, while the open MRI machine is a large ring that patients pass through.
