Our hospital’s newly introduced The 1.5T MRI system is currently the latest-generation 1.5T MRI equipment in the industry. This equipment adopts a full-process approach. Human-centered design makes MRI examinations more comfortable and convenient, comprehensively enhancing patient comfort during the procedure.
The MRI scan showed no abnormalities. X-ray ionizing radiation poses no harm to the human body and can perform diagnoses that many other imaging modalities cannot, making it one of the most important diagnostic tools in medical imaging.
NeuMR 1.5T Shengshi MRI’s comprehensive scanning software lays a solid foundation for the clinical application of MRI and provides strong support for the development and implementation of more advanced clinical applications.
Which diseases require an MRI examination?
◎ The cranial and cerebral nervous system, including congenital developmental abnormalities, cerebral ischemia, cerebral hemorrhage, brain tumors, traumatic brain injury, and particularly lesions in the sellar region, posterior cranial fossa, and spinal cord.
◎ Diseases of the musculoskeletal system, such as injuries to joints and muscles, early bone destruction and minor fractures, various types of arthritis, and observation of synovial effusion.
