What determines MRI quality?
Quality for MRI is based on three key components: MRI field strength, MRI technologist and the radiologist.
MRI Field Strength
Every Smart Choice MRI center uses only the most state of the art MRI medical imaging technology. We have built our quality of imaging around the most trusted name in MRI, GE Healthcare. At our West Milwaukee location, we utilize the gold standard of MRI technology, a GE 1.5 Tesla Closed MRI scanner. Our quality of imaging has been top rated by all insurance companies and the American College of Radiology (ACR), the foremost experts in maximizing the value of radiology in healthcare.
Radiologist
Only exams read by the most qualified Radiologists have any value. Patients and their doctors count on the most accurate report from the Radiologists to determine what treatment, if any, will be required.
