MRI is a non-invasive imaging technique that provides highly-detailed cross-sectional images of soft tissue structures around bones, blood vessels, organs, and the brain.
Unlike CT, MRI uses no x-rays or radiation but rather combines the naturally occurring force of a magnetic field with radio waves to produce signals that are reconstructed on a digital computer.
Salem Hospital has three state-of-the art MRI units at its facility, including a new open MRI to enhance patient comfort during an exam. Registered nurses are also available to address patients comfort or sedation needs.
