Magnetic
Resonance Imaging uses radio waves and a strong magnetic field rather
than x-rays to provide remarkably clear and detailed pictures of internal
organs and tissues. The technique has proven very valuable for the
diagnosis of a broad range of conditions in all parts of the body,
including cancer, heart and vascular disease, stroke, and joint and
musculoskeletal disorders.
Superior Imaging
The
new generation of short/wide bore and Open MRI systems now provide
the highest resolution images available today. The design of the
wide and Open MRI helps patients to relax.
Interpretations
The
patients' scans are read by board certified radiologist or neurologist.
We will fax the report to the referring physicians office within
24 - 48 hours. An original will follow by mail.
