Upright® MRI

A Less Confined MRI Offered in New Jersey

Upright MRI is the only "whole body MRI" with the ability to perform Positional Imaging™ which allows patients to be scanned in positions such as sitting or lying down. For the first time, patients can be scanned in weight-bearing positions in their precise location of the symptoms or pain.

The Upright® MRI has the ability to put the patient in the position necessary to obtain the most complete and accurate diagnosis possible. As a result of its unique ability to scan patients in weight-bearing positions, the Upright® MRI has detected problems that would have gone undetected on ordinary lie-down scanners.

Our technologist will help position you in the scanner. An imaging device called a "coil" will be placed around the area of the body to be scanned.

The Upright, multi-positional MRI offers extraordinary patient comfort and diagnostic advantages:

• Patient-friendly for adults and seniors
• Comfortable, easy positioning - sitting or lying down
• Watch a 42” TV during your scan
• Accommodates patients up to 500 lbs
• Can help lower anxiety for patients with claustrophobia
