3 Tesla MRI
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), one of the most advanced and advanced radiological methods used in medical diagnosis, creates images using natural parameters in the human body. MRI devices consist of devices with magnetic field strength between 0.2 and 3 Tesla MR. A higher Tesla value means a stronger magnetic field.
3 Tesla MRI allows obtaining higher resolution images thanks to higher magnetic field strength. This enables better examination of detailed anatomical structures. These types of MRI systems are often used for conditions with more complex imaging needs, particularly in neurological, orthopedic and oncological fields.
3 Tesla MRI at Liv Hospital
Liv Hospital Radiology Clinic offers patients a high-level medical imaging experience with 3 Tesla MRI technology. This advanced MRI device with a large magnet diameter (70 cm), which is rare in Turkey, allows obtaining detailed and high-resolution images, while also prioritizing the comfort of patients. Liv Hospital aims to provide accurate and reliable diagnoses to its patients by using the leading technologies of modern medicine.
Advantages of 3 Tesla MRI
The width of the device interior increases the patient's compliance and comfort during MRI scans. It also makes it possible for patients with claustrophobia and overweight to have an MRI.
One of the most important factors affecting patient comfort in 3T devices is the high sound level generated during the examination.
Some patients may be very uncomfortable with this. The 3T GE device has a sound reduction technique that can reduce the sound heard by the patient by up to 40 percent. There is also a music system and video broadcast for patients to have a pleasant time during the examination.
Image quality is high in all shots, thanks to the program that prevents image distortion caused by movement, MRI-compatible metal prosthesis and implants attached to the body.
When and why is it requested?
When a problem is encountered in the direct x-ray or in the presence of findings that cannot explain the clinical condition of the patient, MRI, one of the advanced radiological examinations that plays a leading role in diagnosing diseases, is requested.
MRI is among the first examinations requested to evaluate many organs such as the brain that cannot be shown on direct radiographs. Computed Tomography provides more successful images in evaluating bone structures, while MRI provides more successful images in showing soft tissues.
