Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses a powerful magnetic field and radio waves to produce detailed images of internal body structures—especially soft tissues (such as muscles, ligaments, the brain, and spinal cord).
‘3.0T’ describes the magnetic field strength generated by the scanner. A Tesla (T) is a unit of magnetic field strength, with 3 Tesla being approximately 60,000 times stronger than the Earth’s magnetic field.
Advantages of the 3-Tesla MRI
Designed for Your Comfort
In addition to technical excellence, our 3.0 Tesla MRI is designed to make your experience as comfortable and straightforward as possible. The machine includes an automated system which notifies you throughout the scan about its duration, the table's movements, and when to hold your breath—helping to make the exam less stressful.
It also provides a customisable audiovisual setting, helping you remain relaxed and still during the scan—which contributes to more precise imaging.
Cutting-edge Technology
Our Philips MR Ingenia Elition 3.0T scanner includes innovations that optimise the imaging process, such as:
