It can position the patient for the full range of conventional "lie-down" MRI scanning, or upright for weight-bearing studies. The full length of the spine can be imaged in the normal weight-bearing posture, even with the patient touching their toes for full flexion images of the lumbar spine. Unusual patient positions that are impossible on conventional "lie-down" MRI scanners are routine on Washington Open MRI's new Stand-Up Open MRI.<br /> <br /> The patient positioning system is tilted back slightly (approximately five degrees) in order to stabilize the patient and avoid body motion during stand-up scanning. Patients can be positioned facing the poles, which enables a large range of motion for scans of the shoulder. Scans can also be obtained with lateral flexion of the lumbar spine.

The combination of the transaxial magnetic field and any of FONAR's arrays of high signal-to-noise solenoid surface coils is one of the key reasons why the new Stand-Up Open MRI is second-to-none in image quality. Its full range of advanced software features and state-of-the-art pulse sequences provide unparalleled diagnostic precision.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div> <br /></div>

A family member may always sit with you during the Open MRI scan.
