An MRI is an entirely non-invasive scan that is very low risk. MRI’s do not use any radiation: instead, it uses a large magnet, radio waves, and a complex computer system to take detailed internal images of the patient’s body.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging, also known as an “MRI,” is an imaging procedure used by physicians to take a look inside the human body to obtain diagnostic data. MRI combines the powerful magnetic fields with radio waves to create computer-generated images of soft tissue in the body. MRI procedures are beneficial in lowering the need for additional diagnostic procedures or invasive surgeries that may have associated complications.
An MRI is a simple and pain-free way to diagnose disease or injury, even in the earliest of stages. The doctor often orders patients to have an MRI when they are unable to diagnose an injury or illness from the outside of the body and need to get a closer look at what is going on from the inside. Delray Beach MRI scans help doctors determine the best treatment path for their patients.
Since an MRI is a non-invasive procedure, our radiologist will be in communication with your doctor to send over the results as soon as possible. We offer same-day MRI services if you are looking to get results fast. We understand that there are time-sensitive matters when it comes to injuries or diseases.
We understand the importance of being comfortable and calm during your visit to our imaging facility. Therefore, our Open MRI offers you more space and serenity while the large magnet scans your body.
Most diagnostic imaging centers have standard MRI units. At Tesla MRI, we have an Open MRI. Having four sides of the unit open reduces the chances of you feeling trapped and anxious. This is of benefit if you are claustrophobic and want to be comfortable during your exam.
