MRI

Our Siemens 1.5T MRI Tim System Scanner enables us to obtain images of exceptionally high quality in order to achieve swifter diagnosis and reduced examination time.

This state-of-the-art system has 32 channels and can combine up to 72 coil elements, a configuration that makes this system superior, scanning the patient top to toe without any repositioning required.

Since introducing this MRI machine, we have reduced scanning time by 30%. As a result, patients have a reduced period of time under anaesthetic, which is particularly important in trauma cases.

The scanner has capabilities to evaluate perfusion in brain tumours, cartilage thickness, and spinal cord changes of 1mm slice thickness.
