MR Cardiac

What is a Cardiac MRI?

MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) uses radiofrequency waves and a strong magnetic field rather than x-rays to provide remarkably clear and detailed pictures of internal organs and tissues. The procedure is valuable in diagnosing a range of conditions in the heart and vascular disease and stroke. MRI is unique in that it can also create detailed images of blood vessels without the use of contrast material.

MR cardiac can detect the buildup of plaque and blockages in the blood vessels, making it a great for detecting and evaluating coronary artery disease.

MR cardiac of the heart, aorta, coronary arteries and blood vessels is a fast, noninvasive tool for diagnosing coronary artery disease and heart problems.
