Siemens Magnetom Espree
This extra-large Open Bore accommodates patients of all
sizes and is perfect for those who get anxious during an
MRI. With its spacious headroom, you will no longer feel
like you are nose-to-nose with the top of a magnet. With
its short design, most exams can be done with your head outside
of the system. No other High Field MRI can offer that.
The OPEN MRI technology works the same as a conventional
MRI; however, OPEN MRI machines have lower magnetic field
strength and are designed to accommodate patients who might
be unable to have a conventional MRI exam. Due to lower magnetic
field strength, the scan times will be longer. Certain conditions
may prevent any MRI examination. Patients with a cardiac
pacemaker, aneurysm clip in the head or physical limitations
where the patient is unable to remain still cannot safely
have an MRI. After careful screening, CT or nuclear medicine
may provide alternatives in some circumstances.
one size truly fits all. |
