MRI Scan &
Imaging Centers has a full range of MRI scanners available. We are the only facility in South Florida to offer every modality of
MRI scanning including mid-field, high-field, and open scanners. MRI Scan &
Imaging Centers is a multi-diagnostic center housing Ultrasound, CT
Scanning, and PET (Positron Emission Tomography), Bone Density and Nuclear
Medicine. OPEN
MRI SCANNERS: The MRI Scan & Imaging
Centers offer two open scanners including the Siemens Open. Both have advanced hardware and software options. The Siemens Open
scanner is conveniently located in Fort Lauderdale, FL. This
state-of-the-art scanner offers a wide range of scanning capabilities
while allowing the patient to feel comfortable without the closed-in
feeling. SIEMENS VISION HIGH FIELD SCANNER: The
Siemens Vision 1.5 is a powerful scanner with the strongest Gradient
Strength and most advanced applications. This scanner is especially useful
for advanced imaging known as MRA (Magnetic Resonance Angiography).
MRA is a procedure that allows us to view blood flow throughout the entire
body. MRA is a safe and painless alternative to conventional X-Ray
Angiography, which is expensive, invasive, uses ionizing radiation, and is
a lengthy procedure that requires the injection of a dye into the
patient's bloodstream. The conventional X-Ray Angiogram is inherently
risky, while and MRA is safe and painless. In addition to viewing blood
flow, this equipment provides the most detailed evaluation of the brain,
spine, and extremities available today. We also have the capability of
performing MR Cholangiopancreatography (a non-invasive method for
evaluating the pancreas and gall bladder), Breath Hold Abdominal Imaging
(for motion free images of the abdomen), CSF Flow Studies (allowing
quantitative analysis of Cerebrospinal Fluid dynamics), Diffusion (the
earliest detection of stroke detection available), and Perfusion Imaging
(to aid in lesion characterization). |
