3T MRI
State-of-the-art high definition magnetic resonance scanner
Bridgewater Imaging Center 3.0T HDx
Our Bridgewater office offers comprehensive clinical capabilities and a platform for the future of MRI applications – in high defintion
GE Healthcare’s Signa EXCITE 3.0T HDx system is the world’s first high definition magnetic resonance (HDMR) system. HDMR provides physicians with improved image clarity. Benefits of High Definition (HD) Capability in MR Imaging
- HD gradients deliver high fidelity and high image quality
- GE Healthcare’s exclusive HD (high definition) coils are optimized for image quality for specific imaging areas and improved patient comfort during the exam
The hardware and software advances in Signa EXCITE 3.0T HD system provide enhanced clinical and productivity advantages while creating a platform for new techniques and applications. The Signa EXCITE 3.0T HDx system delivers a comprehensive applications suite, providing optimal diagnostic capabilities for the assessment of anatomy, morphology, physiology and function.
Associated Radiologists has been the leader in innovative MR technology, introducing the first clinically viable high-field MRI system to our medical community more than 20 years ago. Once again, we offer breakthrough technology for the following procedures:
- Neurological/Brain Imaging
- Spine Studies
- Orthopedic – including elbow, wrist, hip, knee, foot and ankle
- Prostate
- Pelvis – Male and Female
- Abdominal
- Specialized vascular and cardiac applications
- Functional and spectroscopic imaging
Benefits of 3.0T MR Systems
- Delivers the highest clinical field strength available on the market today
- Double the field strength and signal of 1.5T MR systems – delivering higher resolution and the ability to see smaller structures
- GE Healthcare’s 3.0T system has an exceptionally wide view, delivering enhanced clinical flexibility and an easier, more comfortable patient positioning options
- Maximized signal-to-noise arms physicians with the speed necessary to image dynamic processes, without compromises in image quality
Patient Benefits
- Patient comfort and easier exam positions - features generous 60 cm patient opening and full 45 cm field-of-view
- Quieter exam experience - GE’s exclusive Quiet Technology™ reduces acoustic noise levels during the exam
- Reduced rescanning/redundant exams due to patient or organ motion
Associated Radiologists will get unprecedented imaging speed and clarity with this new system – useful in cases where patients are difficult to image due to movement, including Parkinson’s patients who suffer from uncontrollable patient motion and children who do not respond to sedation.
