Angiography

Overview

Mercy Radiology's wide bore 3Tesla MRI scanner offers superior diagnostic capabilities and greater patient comfort and space. 

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (or MRI) produces detailed cross-sectional images of most parts of the body, using two naturally occurring forces to generate the images – magnetic fields and radio waves without the use of ionising radiation.

During the scan, a computer processes the signals received from protons in the body and produces a series of images interpreted by a specialist MRI radiologist.

Risks

​Due to the strong magnetic field of the scanner, some patients may not be able to have an MRI
examination. Please contact us immediately if you have a cardiac pacemaker, cochlear implants,
metal fragments in the eye or surgical clips on blood vessels in the brain.
