Our MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) Centre proudly presents the latest technology in MRI, the first 1.5 Tesla and 3 Tesla systems with TIM (Total Imaging Matrix) system in the world which combines up to 76 - 102 matrix coil elements and up to 32 radiofrequency channels to one imaging matrix - scanning of head, thorax, abdomen, and extremities, all at once. Our MRI Centre is the first and only centre in Hong Kong that operates both 1.5T and 3T MRI system with TIM technology, and is expected to streamline the workflow of whole body imaging in as little as 12 minutes.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a significant breakthrough in medical technology. MRI is a multiplanar imaging method based on an interaction between radiofrequency electromagnetic fields and certain nuclei in the body after the body has been placed in a strong magnetic field. MRI demonstrates normal tissues and can differentiate between normal and abnormal tissues, providing a sensitive examination to detect disease. This non-invasive procedure is painless, and does not require surgery or use of radiation. MRI creates detailed images, allowing physicians to look insides the body with precision. This aids in early diagnosis of various illnesses and in planning treatment of injury and illness.

	Maximum comfort and open environment promote patient acceptance.
	Sophisticated computer control system is capable of storing huge amount of images.
	Advanced imaging capabilities include EPI, 1024 acquisition, Diffusion , Perfusion and real time imaging , offer significant advancements to conventional imaging.
	Extended applications, from routine clinical imaging to advanced angiography and cardiography, provide remarkable applications flexibility.
	Comprehensive cardiac imaging package facilitates complete assessment of the heart from morphology to coronary artery imaging in less than an hour.
	Diffusion imaging that can be performed within a short time has the potential to diagnosis ischaemic insults in the first 24 hours.
	Perfusion imaging allows assessment of perfusion of various organs.
	Angiography with BolusTrak and MobiTrak allows accurate timing of contrast dose and full coverage of periphery run off.
