Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Hospital: 3.0 Tesla MRI
        
 

Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Hospital

3.0 Tesla MRI

3.0 Tesla MRILocated in our new freestanding outpatient diagnostic imaging center, the Philips InteraAchieva 3.0T MR system has twice the field strength of a conventional magnet, allowing for more precise diagnoses, better presurgical planning and enhanced patient care. The 3T MRI produces images with extreme detail and clarity while revealing fine changes in body structures or physiological processes.

It can often pick up early chemical changes that other tests may not find. With cutting edge technology, an experienced staff of radiologists and a new level of convenient accessibility at our new freestanding imaging center, Memorial Hermann The Woodlands sets a new standard for imaging.

Applications

  • Breast biopsy
  • Breast MRI
  • Cardiac
  • Musculoskeletal

Benefits

  • Higher resolution in increased clarity and detail
  • Increased sequencing speeds (one study every 15 minutes), reducing scan time without sacrificing image quality
  • Enhanced functional MRI to precisely localize area of activation for more accurate mapping of brain function
  • Shorter scan times improve patient comfort
  • Improved MR angiography, since high field strength makes it possible to visualize blood vessels as small as 200 to 300 microns
  • Cardiac applications with no exposure to radiation
  • Provides a variety of scanning techniques and virtually limitless flexibility in setting parameters and constructing protocols
