The Espree MRI has more headroom than any MRI in the region, including those
referred to as "open MRIs."
Perfect for claustrophobic patients.
With the scanner opening increased to 27 inches in diameter and the magnet shortened to 49 inches the Espree helps alleviate the "tunnel feeling" that some patients may find confining. With such a short magnet bore many scans can be completed with the patient's head out of the scanner or very close to the opening.
The right scanner for larger patients.
With a weight capasity of 550 pounds the Espree is the MRI scanner of choice for many referring providers and their larger patients.
According to Dr. Michael Troychak of Medford Radiological Group, "What makes this system such a great leap forward is the combination of the large opening and short magnet, plus all of the advantages of a true 1.5T high-field MRI system such as speed of imaging, high-resolution, and versatility." |
