Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)


MRI is a diagnostic methodology that allows the physician to examine the inside of a patient’s body without using ionizing radiations. It is particularly useful to get detailed images of brain, spine and bone marrow as well as in oncology, orthopaedics, vascular surgery and gastroenterology.

MRI generally last between 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the area to be examined.

The MRI is a safe and non invasive methodology. Thanks to the lack of ionizing radiations it can be repeated after a short period of time. MRI equipment have been constantly developed and improved, and play a major role in the diagnosis of several diseases. When performing an MRI it is fundamental to use new and cutting-edge equipment.

Ars Medica is currently equipped with last generation equipment, with a powerful magnetic field and sophisticated software. It is therefore possible to perform the following examinations:

- diffusion and perfusion MRI of the human brain; CSF flow study
- acoustic nerve, floor of mouth and temporomandibular joint
- spine and bone marrow
- breast, thorax and mediastinum
- abdomen, cholangiography, urological MRI
- MRI of the prostate with spectroscopy
- foetal, neonatal and paediatric MRI
- 3D volumetric image reconstruction

MRI can be also performed under sedation or general anaesthesia.
