Overview: Large and claustrophobic patients pose a special set of challenges in the MRI suite, with implications for imaging efficiency, profitability and standard of care. Turville Bay MRI and Radiation Oncology Center in Madison, Wisconsin, knows this all too well. More than 15 percent of their patients were either large or claustrophobic or both, and the problems seemed to be escalating. Turville Bay has found a revolutionary way to address the unique needs of this underserved and growing population. The new Siemens MAGNETOM Espree MRI scanner, with its high-field 1.5T magnet and innovative open-bore design, eliminates the compromise between patient comfort and image quality that plagues most imaging centers.
