Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

The MRI Department at Poona Hospital & Research Centre provide services around-the-clock and is well-equipped with the latest 3T MRI machine. With the highest quality of imaging and image interpretation, the department provides quick and precise diagnostic reports.

MRI 3 Tesla Scan

Tesla (T) is the unit of measurement quantifying the strength of a magnetic field. Before the 3 Tesla Machine, the high-field standard was 1.5 Tesla.

The 3 Tesla scanner generates a magnetic field that is twice the strength of 1.5 Tesla machines and 10 to 15 times the strength of low field or open MRI scanners.

The magnetic field produced by the 3T Magnetom Trio MRI System yields exceptional anatomic detail.

The increased image clarity revealed by 3T is particularly beneficial for pathological conditions involving the brain, spine, and musculoskeletal system.

The benefits of the 3T scanner are not confined to Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

The increased spatial resolution of the 3T scanner allows for high-quality vascular imaging. Thus, 3 Tesla MR Angiogram studies may often supplant the need for invasive interventional catheter studies.

FAQ

MRI exam will not hurt you in any way.
2) Is there any radiation in the MRI scan?
MRI uses no radiation.
3)Can I eat or drink before an MRI Scan?
Please consult the doctor before any food/liquid intake.

MRI Scan Centre in Pune | Advanced 3T Magnetic Resonance Imaging

MRI Scan Centre in Pune

Poona Hospital & Research Centre provides 24x7 Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) services in Pune. The MRI Department is equipped with advanced 3T MRI technology and provides diagnostic imaging and image interpretation for a range of clinical requirements.

Advanced 3T MRI Scan in Pune

The department uses a 3 Tesla MRI system for high-quality diagnostic imaging. Tesla refers to the strength of the magnetic field used by an MRI scanner. The 3T system provides increased spatial resolution and detailed anatomical imaging.

3 Tesla MRI for Brain and Spine Imaging

The higher field strength of a 3T MRI system can provide detailed imaging of the brain and spine and may be particularly useful for selected neurological and spinal examinations as clinically indicated.

Musculoskeletal MRI

MRI provides detailed soft-tissue imaging and can support the evaluation of musculoskeletal structures such as joints and related soft tissues when recommended by the treating physician.

MR Angiography in Pune

The increased spatial resolution of the 3T MRI system supports high-quality vascular imaging. MR angiography may be used to evaluate blood vessels when clinically indicated and can sometimes provide an alternative to invasive catheter-based vascular studies depending on the clinical situation.

MRI Without Radiation

MRI uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create images and does not use ionising radiation. Patients should inform the MRI team about implants, metal objects, pregnancy or other relevant medical information before the examination.

24x7 MRI Services in Pune

The official MRI Department page states that services are available around the clock, supporting both routine and hospital-based diagnostic imaging requirements.

Precision Imaging and Diagnostic Reporting

Poona Hospital's MRI Department provides high-quality imaging and image interpretation to support clinical diagnosis. The appropriate MRI examination is selected according to the patient's symptoms, medical history and treating physician's recommendation.

MRI at Poona Hospital & Research Centre

The MRI service forms part of the hospital's Imaging Sciences and diagnostic facilities and works alongside Radiology and other clinical departments to support patient evaluation and treatment planning.
