    The MRI machine looked pretty standard, except that there was a screen with Netflix queued up. The facilitator put a weighted cover (almost like a blanket) over my legs and chest so I stayed still.

    MRI without contrast agents is the imaging mode of choice for pre-surgical, in-utero diagnosis and evaluation of fetal tumors, primarily teratomas, facilitating open fetal surgery, other fetal interventions, and planning for procedures (such as the EXIT procedure) to safely deliver and treat babies whose defects would otherwise be fatal.

    In 2010, Boone Hospital Center unveiled the first "high-field" open MRI machine in Mid-Missouri. This machine can be used for patients too large to fit into a traditional closed MRI or those who suffer from claustrophobia issues. [11] in 2021, Boone Hospital Center separated from BJC HealthCare to become an independent organization.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to generate images of the organs in the body.

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can trigger claustrophobia. An MRI scan entails lying still for some time in a narrow tube. An MRI scan entails lying still for some time in a narrow tube. In a study involving claustrophobia and MRI, it was reported that 13% of patients experienced a panic attack during the procedure.

  7. Magnetic resonance neurography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_neurography

    Magnetic resonance neurography can only be performed in 1.5 tesla and 3 tesla cylindrical type scanners and can't really be done effectively in lower power "open" MR scanners - this can pose significant challenges for claustrophobic patients. Although it has been in use for fifteen years and is the subject of more than 150 research publications ...

    Claustrophobia (fear of closed spaces) severe enough to terminate the MRI exam is reported in up to 5% of patients. Recent improvements in magnet design including stronger magnetic fields (3 teslas), shortening exam times, wider, shorter magnet bores and more open magnet designs, have brought some relief for claustrophobic patients. However ...
