rnThe state-of-the-art MRI device with which the MRI department is equipped is one of the leading MRI diagnostic imaging units. Produces cross-sectional images in each orientation (tomographs), depicting with great accuracy the internal structure of the human body. Advantages of a CT scanner:rnDue to the strength of the magnetic field (1.5 Tesla) it is capable of producing high definition images of excellent diagnostic quality, in any part of the body. The design of the magnet is very friendly to the examinee due to the very compact construction. Facilitates examinations of young children and multiple injured. Convenience of the examinee:rnThe comfortable approach of the examinee is allowed, as well as the stay of the attendant near him. Also, due to the compact size of the magnet in many examinations such as knee, lower extremities and pelvis, the examinee's head is outside the tunnel resulting in a more comfortable stay . Examinations performed:rnEquipped with all modern sequences and state-of-the-art software programs, the MRI performs all the basic and specialized MRI examinations in a significantly limited execution time and extremely high diagnostic accuracy. Examinations with sequences and techniques of rapid acquisition and high resolution of the whole body and spinernRespiratory movement detection and correction system in chest and abdomen examinations to prevent artifacts from body movements.rnUnique 3D sequences for joints and acoustic pores.rnAdvanced tests with diffusion sequences for the brain:rnMRI of the brain and spinal cord with contrastrnThe examination is included in the prescribed examinations of EOPYY (the examinee pays only 15% of the examination). Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging ( f MRI) of the BrainrnIt is a modern non-invasive method of mapping the brain that locates and studies centers of critical functions for humans such as e.g. speech and memory. It is also suitable for children. The image is produced by the execution of specific commands by the patient (movement of a hand, speech, etc.). In combination with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DTI) it is a key tool for preoperative assessment of patients suffering from lesions near important centers of the brain. (The examination is not included in the prescribed examinations of EOPYY) Brain Magnetic Spectroscopy ( MR Spectroscopy)rnIt is a modern method for assessing the metabolic activity of the brain, allowing the characterization of pathological foci (tumors, demyelinating foci, inflammation and other diseases). (The examination is not included in the prescribed examinations of EOPYY) Magnetic angiography and flow control in all vessels of the body and brain with three-dimensional reconstructionrn(The examination is included in the prescribed examinations of EOPYY (the examinee pays only 15% of the examination). Breast MRI with dynamic analysis of contrast uptake. (The examination is included in the prescribed examinations of EOPYY (the examinee pays only 15% of the examination). MRI of the HeartrnCardiac MRI has been recognized in recent years as an extremely useful test for many cardiovascular diseases, as it provides information in a unique way on both the anatomy and the function of the heart. Cardiac MRI is useful in a significant number of conditions such as: In the assessment of tissue damage after a heart attack.rnIn aortic problems such as aneurysm, or stenosis.rnIn diseases of the pericardium such as compressive pericarditis.rnIn cardiomyopathies.rnIn the differential diagnosis of heart tumors.rnIn congenital (congenital) abnormalities of the heart.rnIn the assessment of valvular diseases: eg such as valve stenosis and insufficiency.rnOther diseases of the heart muscle such as arrhythmogenic dysplasia of the right abdomen, amyloidosis, etc.rnIn Cosmos Medicine, a magnetic resonance imaging of the heart is performed on a high-standard MRI scanner, under the supervision of a specialized cardiologist. (The examination is included in the prescribed examinations of EOPYY (the examinee pays only 15% of the examination). Multiparametric Prostatic MRIrnIt combines special anatomical and functional techniques to obtain that information about the prostate gland, which plays an important role in the detection and staging (calculation of extent) of glandular cancer. P. it proposes especially in patients with high value PSA and negative prostate biopsy. (The examination is not included in the prescribed examinations of EOPYY) Duration of MRI: To examine a part of the body (scan) the duration does not exceed 20 minutes.rnIt takes proportionately more minutes to scan more parts of the body.rnDepending on the diagnosis requested by the treating physician, the length of time an examination lasts varies.rnWhat happens during the test: The patient is placed on a table, finding the most convenient position for him.rnHe is given an alarm button so he can contact the doctor immediately.rnDuring the examination he hears loud repetitive sounds, which stop and start again. While if he wishes, he can listen to music through headphones.rnThe machine is open at both ends.rnIntravenous infusion of a contrast agent may be necessary. https://nationalmriscan.com/our-services/mri-scanningrn
