You Now Have a New Choice in Open MRI


The new WCA Hospital Open Bore MRI is designed to accommodate all size patients and eliminates anxiety and claustrophobia. For many exams, the patient’s feet go in first and the patient’s head remains outside of the system. This has never been possible before in Open MRI. But more important, the new Open Bore MRI is three times more powerful, giving physicians the most confident diagnosis.
Advantages of Open Bore MRI:
- Comfort from every angle: Feet first and head out, eliminating anxiety and claustrophobia.
- Accommodates a wider range of patients:
- Patients accommodated up to 550 pounds
- Claustrophobic patients
- Pediatric and elderly patients
- Accommodates patients with special needs and conditions:
- Pain and mobility issues
- Respiratory problems

- Brilliant images
- The new Open Bore MRI is 3 times more powerful, giving physicians the most confident diagnosis.
WCA Hospital offers this “additional” MRI scanner on Saturdays and Mondays to care for a wider range of patients.
