Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
MRI, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, provides an unparalleled view inside the human body. The level of detail that physicians and technologists can see is extraordinary when compared with other imaging tools.
Our MRI is a Siemens Large Bore 3T MAGNETOM Verio with TIM System, which features a more open design that helps increase patient comfort. The larger circumference accommodates patients of all sizes, weighing up to 550 lbs. With 4 times the strength of open MRI facilities and twice the strength of traditional MRI, our 3T MRI generates superior results by providing the best images and shorter scan times for you! This technology utilizes an extremely powerful magnet to capture remarkable images of microscopic detail for our Board Certified and Muscoskeletal Fellowship trained radiologists to achieve confident diagnoses for our patients and referring physicians.
