Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Overview
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses pulsed radio frequency and magnets to create images used for screening and diagnosis. To detect problems with blood vessels and blood flow, Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA), is also available.
Our advanced equipment provides clearer images, which means quicker, more precise diagnoses, even for challenging diseases and conditions such as:
- Stroke
- Brain diseases
- Vascular diseases
- Spinal cord injuries
- Joint injuries
- Liver diseases
- Prostate cancer
- Disk herniation
- Heart disease
- Breast cancer
- Internal organs
