3 T Diagnostic MR Scanner
A high-field 3 T full-body magnet used for research studies
World-leading MR Imaging
A high-field (3T) whole-body magnet is located within the Center. Initially the system was only capable of head imaging. The installation of a body coil in 2003 allowed investigation of diseases throughout the body.
The 3T Diagnostic MR scanner is currently used for studies spanning a range of applications from brain imaging, to vascular, body and musculoskeletal studies, allowing world-leading MR imaging of acute conditions, such as acute ischemic stroke.
A new, advanced 3T GE Signa UHP MR scanner became operational in May 2024.
