3 TESLA MRI

3 Tesla MRI- What makes us different ?

We offer an entire breadth of latest state-of-the-art Imaging machinery engineered by SIEMENS, Germany which includes India’s first revolutionary MAGNETOM SPECTRA 3 Tesla MRI on a VC Platform for superlative image quality – thus ensuring accurate and reliable diagnosis for patients.

We offer the First 3 Tesla MRI Machine in Ranchi with an ULTRA SHORT MAGNET Length of only 145 cm to combat patient claustrophobia.

As in case of conventional MRI’s, patients at SAMFORD, need not go through the discomfort of being placed inside a long tunnel.

FIRST 3 Tesla MRI IN INDIA ON VC 15 PLATFORM

Our 3 Tesla MRI machine is India’s first MRI on a VC 15 platform – the latest revolutionary imaging software platform for superlative image quality and highly accurate diagnosis.

LATEST ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

  • SyngoSWi – for higher sensitivity to minute intracranial bleeds without radiation.
  • Syngo BLADE – enables motion correction in pediatric and non co-operative patients.
  • Syngo NATIVE – breakthrough application for contrast free imaging of abdominal and renal vasculature.
  • Syngo NEURO-spectroscopy – distinguishes between malignant and benign tissues.
  • Syngo REVEAL – whole body diffusion with fat saturation and increased metastasis conspicuity.
  • CISS – excellent for visualization of fine structures such as cranial nerves.
  • DESS – high resolution cartilage imaging.
  • Inline Diffusion – early detection of stroke

  • MRI means ‘Magnetic Resonance Imaging’. It’s an imaging technique using a strong magnetic field to produce
  • high-quality pictures of soft tissue inside your body, for example muscles and ligaments, brain tissue, etc.
  • MRI technology uses a magnetic field and radio waves to produce detailed pictures of the human body.
  • As the radio waves pass through the body, images are created on a computer screen for radiologists to analyze.
  • These precise images allow radiologists to view soft tissue (muscles, fat, internal organs, blood vessels and tendons)
  • and bones without the use of X-rays or surgery.
  • MRI is completely safe and has been used for over 20 years in USA & UK. There are NO known serious side effects.
  • The MRI imaging technique does not involve exposure to radiation, hence it is totally safe.
  • You’re pregnant or may be pregnant.
  • You have a cardiac pacemaker.
  • You have an artificial heart valve
  • You have a cochlear implant, neurostimulator, or programmable hydrocephalus shunt.
  • You have any metal implant in your body.
  • You’ve had an injury to your eyes involving metal or metal fragments.
  • You’ve had any operations on your head.
  • The MRI machine at SAMFORD is the first MRI in Ranchi with a tunnel length of only 145 cms.
  • This ensures that the patient doesn’t experience any suffocation or claustrophobia.
  • Yes, children can receive an MRI. Our Radiology Department has specialty radiologists and a conscious sedation
  • program to meet the unique needs of pediatric patients.
  • Parents can accompany their children into the scan room and remain with the child during the MRI exam.
  • Yes, it is important for patients to continue taking all medications prescribed by their physician before their MRI exam.
  • Patients should let their technologist know what medications they have taken prior to their MRI scan.
  • You’ll see a small team comprising of qualified & experienced MRI technologists, nursing & paramedical staff who’ll care
  • for you during your examination. One of the MRI technologists will carry out the examination.
  • A trained medical attendant / nurse shall be beside you inside the MRI room during the entire duration of your
  • MRI examination and shall take care of all your needs during the investigation.
  • Jewelry, mobile phones, glasses, hearing aides, dentures, hairpins, credit cards, coins, keys and other metal objects will
  • need to be removed since these can not be taken inside the MRI room. Secure clothing lockers are provided for you where
  • you can deposit your belongings.
  • Please feel free to tell us about any special circumstances (for example, if you need wheelchair access, if you’re hard
  • of hearing, or if you’re claustrophobic)
  • Please remember to bring all your previous medical records in case you have any, including MRI & CT scan reports,
  • laboratory reports, hospital notes.
  • The technologist will have you lie down on a cushioned table. Once you have been comfortably positioned,
  • the table is moved inside the magnet. You will be in a short tunnel which is well-lighted , has a good air flow and completely
  • safe.
  • A mirror over your head and an intercom system keep you in constant contact with the technologist throughout the procedure.
  • During the examination, you may feel a slight vibration and hear some loud rhythmic drumming noises. There are no other
  • physical sensations.
  • You should try to lie as still as possible since any movement will blur the picture. When the scanning is complete,
  • the technologist will return to assist you off the table.
  • You'll be comfortable but you'll hear some loud mechanical sounds from the scanner which are completely normal
  • for this type of investigation.
  • You shall be offered music of your choice, so as to help you relax during the investigation procedure.
  • Most scans take around 10 to 15 minutes, but can take up to one hour, depending on the area being scanned
  • You can eat and drink normally after the scan
  • You can also drive home afterwards and return to work as necessary
  • Depending on the type of examination, you may receive a contrast agent intravenously (IV) through a vein in the arm or hand.
  • Contrast agents are safe injections used to highlight organs and blood vessels in order to produce a better images for the
  • radiologist.
  • If the area we scan needs an injection (known as a 'contrast agent'), there is a very small possibility of an allergic reaction,
  • such as a skin rash or asthma attack. We have expert medical staff on board who are trained to deal with these reactions.
  • A specialist doctor- the radiologist- will study the hundreds of images of your body in detail shortly after your visit.
  • The radiologist will then form a diagnosis and make a comprehensive MRI report.
  • Your MRI report will be ready within two days.
  • MRI is an advanced imaging technique which takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes. During this time, several hundred
  • images are obtained. These images assist us in making a diagnosis for your condition, and may even eliminate the need
  • for biopsy or surgery.
