MRI scan (magnetic resonance imaging scan)

MRI scan

At the OrthTeam Centre, we offer advanced 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. This non-invasive diagnostic test uses magnets and radio waves to produce highly detailed three-dimensional pictures of the inside of your body.

It’s suitable for every part of the body, including bones, soft tissues (such as blood vessels, ligaments and muscles) and the brain, and so can help to diagnose and monitor many different medical conditions.

How long does an MRI scan take?

An MRI scan typically takes between 15 and 60 minutes, depending on the area of your body being examined and how many parts are being scanned. Some MRI scans require an injection of a contrast dye, which helps make certain tissues appear more clearly on the images. You’ll be able to go home soon after the scan.

Cutting-edge MRI technology with Deep Resolve

At the OrthTeam Centre we use Deep Resolve MRI, which is an advanced medical imaging technology that combines deep learning and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to enhance the process of MRI image reconstruction.

Deep Resolve enables images of extraordinary clarity, that provide more accurate diagnosis, and an overall better patient experience.
