ARTOSCAN is the world's
first MRI designed specifically for imaging extremities. It
is also the first MRI compact enough to place within a
clinical environment (office), bringing MRI to the patient. ARTOSCAN's dedicated-extremity design gives you the
unprecedented ability to perform MRI scans in your own
practice. ARTOSCAN puts you at the forefront of patient
diagnosis and management, freeing you from having to depend
on a whole-body MRI to visualize and diagnose extremity
pathology
Physicians appreciate the superior quality of ARTOSCAN
dedicated-extremity imaging, as well as the one
patient-per-day break-even. Patients appreciate the
convenience of immediate in-office MR exams and the
comfortable, claustrophobia-free design. ARTOSCAN
accommodates 98% of the adult population, including
professional athletes.
ARTOSCAN can provide affordable new MR services to small
offices or enhance existing MR services, off-loading routine
extremity exams from a whole-body imager to a
dedicated-extremity MRI. ARTOSCAN is the clear choice for
in-office MRI.
Competitive
Advantages
Having the
ARTOSCAN MRI in your office provides an advantage when
positioning your practice against groups in your area.
Referring physicians and patients will look at your practice
as a provider of higher level service, thus increasing
referrals. The ARTOSCAN system can provide you with an
advantage when competing for managed care contracts. You can
now provide MRI services at a much lower cost than a
whole-body imager.
ARTOSCAN
is the easiest MRI to use. Preset imaging protocols and a
Windows-style interface let the first-time user quickly
begin scanning. Experienced MRI technologists will
appreciate ARTOSCAN's complete range of imaging sequences
and easy customization. Pre-positioned RF coils lock in
place, eliminating patient positioning problems and greatly
simplifying operator training.
ARTOSCAN's
compact, modular design allows for effortless siting
operation. System installation is easy, with a small
footprint that fits in a single 10' X 10' room. ARTOSCAN
typically requires no special RF room, magnetic shielding,
special power supply or air conditioning.
ARTOSCAN
is designed for optimal patient comfort. Patients remain
outside the magnet at all times during the examinations,
enabling constant patient-technologist contact. The
ultra-quiet exam produces no distractions or discomfort,
while patients benefit from the convenient immediate scans.
