Improving the MRI patient experience – with comfort, speed, and entertainment

Most patients who undergo an MRI scan experience some level of anxiety. As a result, some move so much that they cause motion artifacts, can’t complete the scan, or don’t even show up for the exam. This all results in increased health risks and additional costs. Help patients overcome anxiety by turning MRI into a comfortable, fast, and entertaining experience that is in-sync with modern-day demands. Set up a relaxing atmosphere with calming design elements. Create a comfort zone for patients and ease their anxiety with in-bore entertainment and noise reduction. Unique applications can also accelerate the exam and support your staff in delivering fast and fluid scans.

Calm patients with a relaxing atmosphere

Patients arriving for an MRI examination are often anxious and stressed. Help them relax the minute they enter the room with our scanner MoodLight. You can also design a calming theme for your scan room using scanner skins, projections, or wall coverings.

Provide your patients with greater comfort while they undergo an MRI exam with Contour Coils. The soft and lightweight Tim 4G coils provide a blanket-like feeling for your patient by flexibly adapting to their body’s contours. Straps are not needed to hold Contour Coils in place, making positioning fast and easy – and MRI exams less claustrophobic for your patients.

Ease patients’ anxiety

In the bore, patients can feel claustrophobic and tense because they don’t know what’s going on. Educate them before the exam starts using a mini MRI scanner mock-up or MRI models. You can also entertain your patients with infotainment solutions that redefine the MRI experience.

Innovision2 - the in-bore infotainment solution

Redefining the MRI experience

MRI exams are performed in a relatively confined space, they're noisy, and they can be long and boring. Innovision2 redefines the patient experience using a revolutionary in-bore infotainment solution. Patients are engaged by an impressive sound and video experience as soon as they lie on the table. The patient display keeps patient informed about their remaining scan time and displays predefined or custom content. Another big plus: The patient display makes the bore appear virtually larger, preventing a claustrophobic feeling. The Innovision solution also includes comfort pillows made of memory foam that reduce scan noise and deliver clear audio signals to the patient. With Innovision, the patient can hear their favorite music clearly. They can also hear voice commands from the MRI technologist, thanks to the integrated audio system and specialized ear plugs.

    Scan patients fast and fluid

    Patients who feel uncomfortable during a scan will sometimes move or breathe when they shouldn’t. Scan your patients fast and fluid with clinical applications that complete the MRI exam much faster than conventional methods. Personalize scanning by offering MRI with free-breathing exams for patients who are unable to hold their breath. Provide your staff with our GO technologies, which make scanning fast, more intuitive and consistent across your scanner fleet.

    Accelerate your MRI workflow with BioMatrix and GO Technologies

    Transform care delivery with BioMatrix and GO technologies for an optimized MRI workflow. From patient preparation to result distribution, these new technologies efficiently streamline your clinical operations by using intuitive and AI-based technologies.
     

    Embrace human nature with BioMatrix Technology

    Patients have unique individual characteristics: biovariabilities. Different physiologies and anatomies – as well as the way we interact with them and technology – cause unwarranted variations in imaging results. BioMatrix technology helps overcome these challenges by embracing human nature: Instead of expecting patients to adjust to the technology, BioMatrix automatically adjusts to the individual patient. Only by embracing human nature can we truly personalize examinations and help expand precision medicine.
