Magnetic Resonance Imaging Department at the Dighomi Branch

 Head of the department - Mariam Kutateladze.

 

The Magnetic Resonance Imaging Department is equipped with two state-of-the-art magnetic resonance imaging systems from Siemens: Magnetom Lumina (3T strength), which is distinguished by:

 

  • The latest generation of software, enabling detailed evaluation of structural changes in various pathologies.
  • The capability to examine patients with high body weight.
  • A wide tunnel ensuring comfort for claustrophobic patients during the examination.
  • If necessary, the examination can be conducted under sedation. The anesthesiology department provides sedation for both adult and pediatric patients.

The Magnetic Resonance Imaging Department performs:

 

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the Brain
    The use of submillimeter slices significantly increases the likelihood of detecting any fine-fiber damage.
  • Spectroscopic study of pathological areas in the brain
    Allows assessment of their metabolic level.
  • Detection of ischemic brain injury in the acute stage, and differentiation of tumor formation characteristics using diffusion-weighted imaging.
  • Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) of the brain and neck major blood vessels
    This method is a non-invasive alternative to conventional X-ray contrast examination.
  • MRI of abdominal organs:
    Liver, spleen, pancreas, adrenal glands, and kidneys; non-contrast Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA); MR enterography.
  • Magnetic Resonance Diagnostics of pelvic organ diseases, including multiparametric studies of the prostate and bladder.
  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging of musculoskeletal structural disorders.
  • MRI of pediatric patients.
