MRI can help with early detection, giving you a head start on treatment. Here’s how it works and what to expect.
Learn about the key differences between a 3T vs 1.5T MRI to determine which type of scan could be the best option when being proactive about your health.
There are also three gradient magnets inside the MRI machine. These magnets are much lower strength compared to the main magnetic field; they may range in strength from 180 gauss to 270 gauss. While the main magnet creates an intense, stable magnetic field around the patient, the gradient magn...
An animal device that is also a radiation emitting electronic product, such as an MRI device intended for animal use, must comply with all requirements for animal devices in addition to applicable requirements for radiation-emitting electronic products in 21 CFR 1000 - 1050. FDA’s Center for De...

MRI machines are large tubes, and the process of an MRI can take an hour or more. For this reason, it’s important for MRI technicians to explain the process of the procedure to patients in detail before the procedure begins. Once inside of the machine, it’s critical for patients to ...
3D LifePrints use Simpleware software as part of services for providing 3D anatomical models for clinical situations. For example, models have been used for looking at liver tumors and potential radiation treatment methods. The 3D printed models provide an additional option for clinicians to better ...
deformed back. An MRI is a painless procedure where you lie perfectly still inside a claustrophobic machine while it makes all kinds of scary noises as it blasts your body with ominous radioactive waves. (Okay, intellectually I know MRI machines don’t use radiation, but emotionally, I still...
