What is a High Field Open MRI?


Q: What is a High Field Open MRI and is it better than other Opens?

A: All MRI machines use a strong magnetic field. Simply put... the stronger the magnetic field the better the pictures and the faster the exam time. Currently, all Open MRI machines use a magnetic field of 1 Tesla or less, most often much less. Capital Imaging Associates' ESPREE(TM) Open MRI uses a 1.5 Tesla magnetic field, it has a larger opening than any other Open MRI unit and is capable of imaging patients up to 550 lbs. Unique to the industry, this MRI unit also allows us to perform high quality Breast MRI in an open machine, a major Technological advancement in Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
