The
unique Wide Body scanner takes MRI technology one step further, adding
to leading edge imaging patient comfort and video cine capabilities.
Wide-Body Advantages to the Patient :
Comfort:
Our Wide Body MRI is wider and taller than other MRI scanners. Larger
patients, including athletes, and even patients who suffer from
claustrophobia, find that our Wide Body MRI is not confining. You will
be able to lie flat, or on your side; you may stretch out comfortably.
No
Side Effects: Your scan will be completely painless and without side
effects. The Wide Body MRI is non-invasive. There are no tubes or
scopes. No blood is drawn. No radiation is used. The procedure is
completely safe. Immediately following your scan, you may resume your
normal activities.
Speed:
Wide Body MRI is fast. Your diagnosis can be ready to show your doctor
the same day. You no longer have to wait for days worrying about test
results. Your physician can begin treating your problem right away.
Precision:
You have the benefit of the most precise diagnostic tool. Only MRI is
right the first time. MRI pictures the minute details of the human
anatomy that were previously unseen through other testing procedures.
MRI eliminates the need for additional, expensive, uncomfortable
testing.
Clarity:
The Wide Body's video cine capabilities allow us to arrange a number of
static images in away that, when played back on video, makes images
actually appear to be in "motion". The result is better
visualization of joints, tendons, and ligaments in motion.
