MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging

We are using one of the leading brand Philips 1.5 Tesla Advance INGENIA PRODIVA CS Digital Broadband MR machine for Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
Philips has been a pioneer in the field of magnetic resonance imaging in India. And is first to do functional MRI, TRICKS multi-phase MR angiography, VIBRANT MR mammography and LAVA liver imaging in the world. Our centre is equipped with the latest high-Definition 1.5 Tesla digital broadband MRI system and all MR examinations are routinely performed. Even uncooperative patients who move in the MRI machine can be scanned using special PROPELLOR sequences.
MRI is a non-invasive modality using nuclear magnetic resonance to render images of the inside of an object. It is primarily used in medical imaging to demonstrate pathological or other physiological alterations of the living tissues.
MR imaging uses a powerful magnet, radio waves and a computer to generate pictures of organs, soft tissues, one and other internal body structures in exquisite detail. No harmful ionizing radiation is used in MR imaging the usual applications of MRI are in:
⦁ Diagnosing tumours or inflammatory granulomas in brain
⦁ Visualizing torn ligaments in the wrist, knee and ankle
⦁ Diagnosing infections in the brain, spine or joints
⦁ Visualizing degenerative disease of spine and bulging discs
⦁ Diagnosing stroke in the earliest stage
⦁ Visualizing shoulder injuries and tendonitis
