3T MRI

MRI Scan Brisbane

3T MRIs surpass global imaging benchmarks in the field of radiology, setting new standards for quality and precision. For context, traditional MRI machines operate at a strength of 1.5 Teslas (T) – which indicates the strength of the magnetic field.

Twice the power, the 3T MRI at Brisbane Radiology offers doctors more detailed and reliable cross-sectional images of internal structures than lower strength scanners. Internal structures include; the brain, spinal cord, muscles, organs and joints.

You will find the latest in MRI technology with unique sequencing, available at Brisbane Radiology in South East Queensland.

 

Our Services

The 3 Tesla MRI machine uses a strong magnetic field and radiofrequency pulses to generate detailed images of the body’s internal structures. Put simply, the patient lies inside a large, tube-like machine, containing a powerful magnet. The magnetic field aligns the hydrogen atoms in the body, while radiofrequency pulses cause these atoms to emit signals detected by the 3 Tesla MRI machine. Unlike X-Rays and CTs, which use ionising radiation, an MRI doesn’t expose the patient to radiation.
