  • Fiona checks out the open MRI scanner for the first time. Dr Blease the Consultant Radiologist explains how the MRI works while Carol Ann performs the scan itself.

    This looks AMAZING! I'm going to have to plan my retirement around where these MRI machines reside. Because those sausage tube MRIs are absolute torture!

    This looks like the best MRI machine I've ever seen for claustrophobic patients. Does anyone know what type of machine this is? Name and model to try to find one in the US?

    • @theonemodifier

      Actually radiologist in America will not accept the results because they are lacking full coverage. A radiologist told me yesterday that it's basically a scam. You must be sedated and put to sleep and use a real MRI machine that has complete coverage

    I need an MRI done and I'm don't do well in enclosed spaces. I'd love a trip to Britain and would love to do this at the same time. Just an excuse to take a trip. But this definitely looks easier than what I've seen here in central Pennsylvania.

    I have claustrophobia so bad along with sound sensitivity that I have to be put under out Using the same medications they do during surgery I cannot be conscious while I’m in. It’s not just being claustrophobic it’s that sound that drives me crazy I’m also a very large person so there’s no way to move I got trapped in one years ago and it really freaked me out

    • @fixmyspine344

      Sometimes, it can help when the people with you give you control of the situation, with no time constraints so that you can walk around the large and brightly-lit room before approaching the scanner itself. The noise is less with weaker magnets, although this affects the quality of the imaging to a degree as well. I had a conventional scan recently and I'm very familiar with the noises. I tried to work out which rhythm meant which sequence and eventually drifted off to snooze!

    How was she able to film so close to the magnet and I always wondered what the constant (air pump) sound MRI have is?

    • @fixmyspine344
      @fixmyspine344  Před 5 lety +1

      Hi, the magnetism of an MRI varies according to the 'power' of the machine. Open scanners tend to have lower resolution images but the up-side is less noise and lower magnetism allows for metallic objects to get much closer to the machine without getting pulled into it. There's a clip on the same channel which shows how close I get with car keys to this scanner, which I believe is a 0.5Tesla machine.

      People are getting less strict about metal in MRI scanners these days. Pacemakers, for example, are finally being accepted in lower Tesla MRI scanners.

    According to a very experienced radiologist this is basically a scam. They lack full coverage. If you're claustrophobic or a child you just have to be sedated and put under and use a real MRI machine. And a lot of times you can just do a CT scan which are very easy if you're claustrophobic I just did one yesterday.

    • @fixmyspine344
      @fixmyspine344  Před rokem +3

      Hi, CTs involve radiation, with an associated lifetime increased risk of malignancy. The open MRI is of a lower quality, due to the weaker magnet, than a closed MRI in general, but the images are still of diagnostic clarity. No scam.
