Additional ways an Open MRI may benefit you:
Anxiety & Claustrophobia Assistance
Some patients who have MRI in an enclosed scanner may feel confined, closed-in, and frightened. Perhaps one in twenty will require a sedative to remain calm. Many patients avoid this problem by being examined in our Open MRI equipment. We even will permit a relative or friend to be present in the MR scan room, which can also have a calming effect if required.
Size and Weight Considerations
Open MRI Equipment is the de facto recommendation for patients in need of Bariatric care. Open MRI equipment, because of its unique design, can scan patents of up to 450 pounds.
Accommodating and Courteous
You receive courteous and respectful treatment at MRI of Springfield both as a patient and as a person. Our code of ethics is spelled out in our patient’s bill of rights.
