Head MRI
Currently, the head MRI is the safest and the most informative medical examination, which provides data on the structure of a brain, brain membranes, blood vessels and other organs located within the cranium. The magnetic resonance principle is based on the feature of hydrogen atoms to emit radio signals (resonate) in a magnetic field. This examination is non-invasive, painless and completely harmless. This procedure can be done in our clinic by making an appointment by phone or through the application form on the website. It is possible to check the cost of an MRI with the manager.

- Up to 250 kg*
- MRI for children and adults
- Under anesthetic
- MRI with and without contrast agent
* - The working load capacity of the table is 250 kg, but the decision about the examination is made by the doctor based on the availability of the apparatus aperture of 70 cm.
Its main differences from similar machines of previous generations are:
Exceptional image quality.
The magnetic field strength of 3 Tesla makes it possible to examine the deepest layers of tissues and organs without loss of accuracy and create a clear, informative image.
It has a high-precision detailing.
4-slice technology is revolutionary today, as it provides high-precision detailing of images and allows to register even the smallest signs of pathology, which makes it possible to diagnose cancer at the earliest stages!
It is suitable for the youngest patients.
The power of our machine of 3 Tesla allows us to obtain high quality images in a shorter time, which makes a MRI procedure for children easier.
No restrictions.
Our machine is equipped with a high-capacity table, so we can perform a head MRI procedure for patients with heavy weights (up to 250 kg).
Tim 4G technology.
This is a unique development by SIEMENS, which has changed MRI. It eliminated the need to change the patient's posture when examining multiple areas of the body. High-precision imaging of processes in real time has also become possible.
The above features allow you to create a computer model of brain tissue as accurately as possible, displaying structural abnormalities and allowing a correct diagnosis based on objective data. This is the most modern equipment for performing a head MRI. If you need an extremely accurate and objective result, the examination in our clinic will provide it.
