This revolutionary scanner has the only MRI-compatible, multi-positional, patient positioning system designed to be fully functional Inside the scanner’s magnetic field. It can position the patient for the conventional “lie-down” MRI scanning, or upright for weight-bearing studies. The entire spine can be imaged in the normal weight-bearing posture, even with the patient touching their toes for full flexion images of the lumbar spine area. Flexible patient positions that are impossible on conventional “lie-down” MRI scanners are routine on Washington Open MRI’s new Stand-Up High Field Open MRI.
The patient positioning system is tilted back slightly in order to stabilize the patient and avoid body motion during stand-up scanning. Patients can be positioned facing the poles, which enables a full range of motion for scans of the shoulder. Scans can also be obtained with lateral flexion of the lumbar spine.This new Stand-Up Open MRI is based on FONAR’s proven high-field technology, and FONAR is the PATENT HOLDER for Magnetic resonance imaging scanning technology – all others license this proprietary technology fror their MRI equipment. So who do you think will always be at “the cutting edge of technology”.The combination of the transaxial magnetic field and any of FONAR’s array of high signal-to-noise solenoidal surface coils is one of the key reasons why the new Weight-Bearing Stand-Up or Sit-Down Open MRI is second-to-none in image quality. Its full range of advanced software package features and state-of-the-art pulse sequences provide unparalleled diagnostic precision.
In the modern medical world…
Frequently an upright position is the only position in which the patient’s symptoms can be viewed and diagnosed. Certain cardiovascular and neurological disorders exhibit their symptoms only when the patient is standing. The same is true of the GI tract and the neck, spine and joints, including hips, knees and ankles which are the most common scan requests. Coupled with MRI’s unparalleled ability to “see” soft tissues, Stand-Up Open MRI gives physicians a more detailed view of pathology and its impact on function.
From the perspective of medicine, Stand-Up Open MRI provides a prominent view of the body’s interior. For the first time, Washington Open MRI brings to the medical practice the newfound ability to see inside the body in the normal position of function – upright.
Our technology is second to none in the MRI imaging world and fully reimbursed by all insurance carriers at no additional cost to the patient.
