MAGNETIC RESONANCE LABORATORY

Magnetic resonance imaging is based on the magnetic properties of the atoms that make up the human body. During the examination, the image of internal organs sections in all planes is presented, providing the physician with precise information on the distribution, size and composition of the examined body tissues.

Ars Medical has two magnetic resonance laboratories. The equipment of the laboratory consists of aparatus provided by Philips: Achieva 1.5T and GYROSCAN T10-NT-PT 3000.
