Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique using strong magnetic fields and radio waves to form
pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes of the body. MRI scans can be used to examine many parts of
the body, including the brain and spinal cord, bones and joints, breasts, heart and blood vessels and internal
organs, such as the liver or prostate gland.
As a non-invasive, painless and safe procedure, MRI scans have become an important widespread imaging tool since introduction and are commonly used by the NHS.
Diagnostic Healthcare has a long-standing track record of delivering MRI services from static clinic locations and from mobile and modular facilities. The MRI service is delivered by highly trained Radiographers who are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and follow a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme. The scans are carefully studied by experienced consultant Radiologists who are on the Specialist Register and are members of the Royal College of Radiologists (RCR).
Diagnostic Healthcare continuously invests in the latest MRI technology to provide the best experience for its patients and staff.
