If taking an exam IRM you worry, this new acquisition of the Niort hospital is good news for you. The establishment has equipped itself with a machine last generation inaugurated this Tuesday, November 23. It brings superior image quality and additional comfort to patients, especially those who are anxious, claustrophobic but also young.
Firstly because this MRI is bigger. The equipment has a wide diameter tube of 71 cm when the average is rather 61 centimeters which is less oppressive for the patients.
Second advantage, the on-board projection system. It helps to distract and capture the attention of patients. The team thus hopes that the exams, which last on average 20 to 40 minutes, will be interrupted more or at least as little as possible.
