WHAT IS MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING?Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive, painless procedure in which radio waves and a magnetic field are assisted by a computer to create remarkably clear and detailed pictures of internal organs and tissues without the use of radiation.

Each MRI produces hundreds of pictures from side-to-side, top-to-bottom and front-to-back.

These pictures show the difference between normal and diseased tissue and enable radiologists to determine what the inside of a particular structure looks like.

The technique has proven very valuable for the diagnosis of many conditions in all parts of the body including cancer, heart and vascular disease, stroke, breast disease, joint and musculoskeletal disorders.We provide “state-of-the-art” MRI with an 18 channel system to include MRI breast imaging, breast biopsy, MRCP, body, musculoskeletal, Central Nervous System, and MR angiography/runoffs.

The technologist will ask you to lie on a table that will move into the tube-shaped scanner, that is open at both ends, after you have been comfortably positioned.

Remaining still during the exam is extremely important in order to obtain clear images.When scanning is complete, the technologist will return to help you from the table.
