3 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Overview

An MRI (Magnetic Resource Imaging) is a scanning procedure that uses a magnetic field, radio waves, and a computer to create precise and thorough images of the human body. The magnetic field’s intensity is measured in teslas or T.

Magnetic resource imaging, as opposed to CT scans, creates 3-dimensional images without the use of dangerous radiation. The magnetic field of an MRI machine causes your body’s hydrogen atoms to momentarily rearrange. These aligned atoms emit very tiny signals when exposed to radio waves, which are utilized to produce cross-sectional MRI pictures that can be stitched together to create 3-D views of various human organs. Fantastic atomic details are produced by the powerful magnetic field produced by the 3.0 Tesla MRI. The photographs produced are sharp and have a lot of resolution. These thorough photographs have improved accuracy and precision in the medical field.

By going down to the ultra-structural level, the 3 Tesla MRI provided at Celera Diagnostics enables the radiologist to see structures that might not be apparent on lower-end equipment, such as blood arteries as small as 200 to 300 microns. The patient spends less time in the machine because of the technology’s ability to perform speedier scanning.

What is it advised for?

Nearly every part of the body can be seen using an MRI scan at Celara, including lungs, (pulmonary angiogram), blood vessels, bones and joints, spine, abdomen, and pelvis. It is used to:

  • Identify issues with the spine, such as disc protrusion, bulging, or space-occupying lesions in the spine;
  • Detect abnormalities in the brain, spinal cord, and other areas of the human body;
  • Identify the location of a tumor, infection, or blood clot in the brain or other parts of the body;
  • Detect conditions that affect the liver and other abdominal organs;
  • Identify the causes of women’s pelvic pain;
  • Detect possible uterine abnormalities in women undergoing infertility evaluation;
  • During surgical, biopsy, and radiation therapy guidelines
