Here are detailed descriptions of the various advanced equipment used in Al Arif Hospital's Radiology and Surgery departments:
Less Noisy MRI (1.5 Tesla Silent)
This MRI machine focuses on patient comfort by significantly reducing noise during the scanning process, making it more tolerable, especially for patients who are sensitive to sound. The 1.5 Tesla MRI provides high-quality imaging while maintaining a quieter environment, which helps reduce anxiety and improve the experience for the patient.
Comfort Features
- Visual focal point to distract patients, encouraging relaxation and stillness during the scan.
- Noise reduction in all sequences, making the process less intimidating.
- Claustrophobia-Free: The open-bore design allows for a more comfortable experience, especially for patients who feel confined in traditional MRI machines.
- Bariatric-Friendly: The wider opening accommodates larger patients, ensuring that everyone can undergo the procedure comfortably.
- Breast MRI Optimization: Specialized settings to ensure high-quality imaging for breast examinations, enabling early detection and better treatment planning.
Toshiba 16 Slice CT Scanner
The Toshiba 16 Slice CT Scanner provides high-resolution imaging that is vital for accurate diagnosis, especially in trauma and emergency situations. This CT scanner enhances clinical decision-making by delivering quick, clear images.
Key Features
- Quicker Diagnosis: Faster scanning times, which is crucial in urgent care scenarios.
- Improved Image Quality: High-resolution images, helping in better visualization of internal structures and conditions.
- Accurate Scans: Precision in imaging allows for detailed assessment of conditions, supporting accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
- Enhanced Care & Safety: The scanner’s speed and precision improve patient safety, particularly in high-stress, time-sensitive situations.
