MRI Scan

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an imaging technique that is used primarily in medical diagnostics for the representation of the structure and function of tissues and organs in the body. The MRI can produce sectional images of the human body, allowing an assessment of the institutions and many pathological organ changes. Magnetic resonance imaging is based on very strong magnetic fields and alternating electromagnetic fields in the radiofrequency range, which stimulate certain atomic nuclei. Receiving become extremely weak electromagnetic fields that are emitted by excited atomic nuclei. The machine is not X-rays or other ionizing radiation is produced or used.

An essential basis for the image contrast are different relaxation times of different tissue types. In addition, the different levels contributes to hydrogen atoms in different tissues to the image contrast. A detrimental effect of the procedure for the human body is not yet known.

In our practice, you is consistent with the "Magnetom ® Essenza" one of the world's most modern and powerful scanner available. The ultra-short magnet system with 145 cm deep and 1.5 Tesla magnet strength has the latest development, the role IsoCenter matrix, which provides, in conjunction with Tim technology, superior image quality in a very short period of investigation.

The very short tube analysis is particularly suitable for people with agoraphobia, because the whole body is in the tube and the head can usually be platzeiert outside.

This innovation from Siemens enables us next brilliant medical examinations of the spine, joints, abdomen, pelvis, skull, etc. too expensive whole-body and vascular investigations within the shortest time. By Tim ™ technology allows the tests run faster and quieter than conventional devices. A special technique for noise suppression lowers the noise level by up to 90 percent.
