Angelo MRI

Our MRI system is non-invasive method of imaging combines a larger bore, or opening -- comfortable for patients of all sizes and for those who are claustrophobic -- with the ability to capture high-field quality diagnostic images. The Angelo MRI system will feature an opening of nearly 2.3 feet in diameter and almost one foot of free space between a patient’s head and the magnet. It also features

the shortest 1.5 Tesla magnet available. Approximately four feet long, the magnet allows more than 60 percent of exams to be completed with the patient’s head outside the opening. This MRI system provides up to four times more signal-to-noise ratio over traditional open MRI designs, which is desirable in larger patients. In addition, the Espree can perform advanced clinical applications in less time because it combines gradient performance with Siemens' Total imaging matrix (Tim™) technology. Tim™ is the first whole body surface coil design that enables the highest resolution images in a shorter time.
