MRI Long Island 3.0 Tesla Ultra High Field Zwanger-Pesiri

3.0 Tesla Ultra High Field MRI

This state-of-the-art MRI provides unsurpassed image quality in extremely short examination times. MRI at 3.0 Tesla is phenomenal in detecting abnormalities within the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord), not previously identifiable as in post-traumatic, demyelinating, inflammatory and degenerative disorders. 3.0 Tesla MRI also establishes a new benchmark in musculoskeletal imaging, visualizing cartilage, ligaments and tendons with the finest detail. Other studies include Pelvic MRI, Abdominal MRI, and MR Angiogram exams.

Zwanger-Pesiri has the greatest number of 3.0 Tesla MRI units compared with any other practice on Long Island; in fact, more than all other practices combined.

Twice the strength of the 1.5T High Field MRI
Five to ten times the strength of most “Open” and “Stand Up” MRIs, providing much more detailed images
TIM (total imaging matrix) provides unprecedented accuracy - read more about TIM

New Gold Standard for Neurological and Orthopedic Imaging

Identifies many tiny abnormalities, including tiny disc herniations and annular tears, which cannot be seen by any other MRI
Earliest detection of multiple sclerosis plaques, small brain metastases and tumors, and small aneurysms
MR Spectroscopy at 3T more reliably distinguishes tumor necrosis from recurrence
Subtle cartilage tears, flaps, thinning, and edema
Tears of ligaments, tendons, and surfaces of menisci

Images of brain taken from the 3 Tesla MRI

Pelvic/Abdominal MRI

Detection and characterization of liver and pancreatic disease
Differentiation of benign from malignant tumors in abdominal organs
Ideal imaging for patients with mild renal insufficiency
Noninvasive imaging tool for biliary and pancreatic ducts
Detection and staging of bladder, prostate and uterine cancers
Imaging benign diseases of female pelvis
Differentiating simple from complex cysts or cystic neoplasm in ovaries
