MRI is the latest edition in Chughtai Lab’s radiology department. The machine provides the best quality images of the brain, spine, all joints, and organs within minutes without requiring the patient to lie in the scanner for a long time. The MRI machine does not use radiations, so it is very safe for children and pregnant women. The immediate detection of brain stroke within an hour of onset and diagnosis of breast cancer is also possible through the MRI.
Open MRI
An open MRI is configured mostly for patient comfort. It looks more like a donut, with magnets above and below the patient and wide open sides. Open MRI is ideal for patients who struggle with anxiety, obesity and children who need a parent present throughout the exam.
