High Field Stand-Up MRI vs. the Traditional “older technology” Open MRI

Washington Open MRI now has the world’s only high field full-body Open MRI scanner that can scan patients in the sitting or standing position – the “position of pain”.

Our new Stand-Up Open MRI technology allows you to watch your favorite TV shows during your Open MRI scan!
Fear of claustrophobia or being squeezed into a tube is non-existent in our totally open MRI scanner.
The world’s Patient-Friendly™ scanner only available at Washington Open MRI’s Stand-Up Open-MRI centers.
Our Open MRI technology is the preferred technology for MRI of the neck, back and knees!

This technological breakthrough is second to none in the MRI imaging world, and fully reimbursed by all insurance carriers at no additional cost to the patient.

The revolutionary scanner features the only MRI-compatible, motorized, multi-positional, patient positioning system, which has been engineered to be fully functional Inside the scanner’s magnetic field. It can position the patient for the full range of conventional “lie-down” MRI scanning, sitting or upright for weight-bearing studies. The full length of the spine can be imaged in the normal weight-bearing posture, even with the patient touching their toes for full fexion images of the lumbar spine. Unusual patient positions that are impossible on the older-technology “lie-down” MRI scanners are routine on Washington Open MRI’s new Stand-Up Open MRI.

The patient positioning system is tilted back slightly (approximately five degrees) in order to stabilize the patient and avoid body motion during stand-up scanning. Patients can be positioned facing sideways, which enables a large range of motion for scans of the shoulder. Scans can also be obtained with lateral flexion of the lumbar spine.This new Stand-Up Open MRI is based on FONAR’s proven high-field technology, which means it delivers exceptional scanning speed and high-resolution imaging.The combination of the transaxial magnetic field and any of FONAR’s array of high signal-to-noise solenoidal surface coils is one of the key reasons why the new Stand-Up Open MRI is second-to-none in image quality and as the patent-holder for MRI we will always be at the cutting-edge of MRI technology. Its full range of advanced software features and state-of-the-art pulse sequences provide unparalleled diagnostic precision.

In Medicine…

Often an upright position is the only position in which the patient’s issues can be diagnosed. Certain cardiovascular and neurological disorders exhibit their symptoms primarily when the patient is upright. The same is true of the GI tract and the neck, spine and joints, including hips, knees and ankles. Coupled with MRI’s unparalleled ability to “see” soft tissues, Stand-Up Open MRI gives physicians a more global view of pathology and its impact on function.

From the perspective of medicine, Stand-Up Open MRI provides a dramatic view of the body’s interior available BY NO other medical imaging technology. For the first time, Washington Open MRI brings to the medical practice the newfound ability to see all the body’s organs and tissues in their normal position of function – upright.

This technological breakthrough is second to none in the MRI imaging world, and fully reimbursed by all insurance carriers at no additional cost to the patient.
