Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Our state-of-the-art MRI scans give a detailed picture of what’s going on inside your body. Click here for some helpful information about what an MRI is and what to expect if you need one.
MRI is short for Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
While the experience for you involves lying within the MRI scanner, behind the scenes our leading-edge technology is using a combination of a powerful magnetic field, radio waves and computer processing to create extremely detailed images of your body’s tissues and organs.
Your MRI scan will help give doctors a more detailed picture of a range of issues from injuries to tissue damage or disease. The process is usually simple and painless – all you need to do is to lie still on the scanning bed while the machine does the work. Our team of highly skilled MRI Technologists will support you every step of the way.
