When researching MRI magnets, signal strength plays a big role in creating the highest quality MRI exam for your medical provider. A 3.0T Ultra-High Field MRI delivers twice the field strength of a traditional 1.5T MRI scanner, providing greater detail in both structure and function. Three Tesla, or 3.0T, MRI is currently the gold standard in many specialized areas of medical imaging, including oncologic, neurological, orthopedic and urological practices.
However, the 3.0T MRI is not always superior to other units. Different strength MRI units, and their customized software packages, are utilized based on the type of study needed by the referring provider.
In today's post, we discuss what you need to know about the magnet strength of an MRI scanner.
