Magnetic Resonance Imaging

General characteristic

In “Nairi” Medical Center acts 1.5 Tesla Siemens Avanto MRI of last generation with advanced options and settings. This device gives a capability of the cut by size of 0.9 мм and a capacity to accomplish an accurate diagnostic examinations during different pathologies and inflammatory changes of organ – systems: during different diseases of brain, spine, bone marrow, musculoskeletal system, joints, abdominal cavity, mammary gland and cardiovascular system.  Siemens Avanto MRI also has protocols to accomplish angiography and myelography. 1.5 Tesla MRI device is based on high technologies, which gives a capability то get a high quality images and to perform accurate diagnostics. Our MRI scanner allows to perform not only such simple examination as a tomography of spine, large joints, brain etc., but also to carry out more complicated examinations that require program synchronization for accomplishment of tomography during patient’s free respiration and heart contractility.

Principal activities

In our clinic we perform examination of the following organ - systems:

• Brain MRI,
• Heart MRI,
• Vessels MRI of different organ - systems (MRI angiography),
• MRI of spine,
• MRI of abdominal cavity and small pelvis,
• MRI of bones and joints,
• MRI of whole body with 3 D transformation of images.

Equipment

Our Center is equipped with 1.5 Tesla Siemens Avanto MRI of last generation with advanced options. Recently the equipment has been modified with additional program – MRI protocol for diagnostics of adults and children epilepsy that would give an opportunity not only to decrease the time of examination, but also to raise the level of examination to the new quality stage. This protocol corresponds to the level of world standards.

“Nairi” Medical Center is also equipped with Magnetom MRI, Siemens.

MRI is a diagnostic equipment that produces a detailed image of human body without using X-Ray. These images are created with the help of powerful magnetic field, radio waves, computer data handling system. MRI procedure is painless and is not accompanied by radiation.
