The Oasis is the most powerful open MRI available today and combines a comfortable patient experience with powerful technology to make imaging procedures as quick and smooth as possible. The Oasis is further enhanced by an array of anatomically specific receiver coils that allow advanced imaging applications ranging from vascular to orthopedic to women’s health.
“I am very pleased to bring a new, high-tech open MRI to our White Pond facility,” said Daniel Finelli, M.D., chair of the Department of Radiology at Summa Health System. “By offering one of the top options for patients who may require additional space due to weight, injury or claustrophobia, we can provide better imaging quality, respond to a patient’s needs and contribute to their overall satisfaction.”
“We are very excited about our relationship with Summa Health System and are pleased to see an installation in a facility dedicated to excellence,” said Sheldon Schaffer, Vice President and General Manager MRI & CT.
