New Milford Hospital gets Open Bore MRI system

Radiology News

The area's first Open Bore MRI system was delivered to New Milford Hospital.

The 1.5-tesla unit has a larger opening, or bore, that is ideal for claustrophobic and larger patients.

It is the same model used at Johns Hopkins Hospital and other major academic centers. The machine is expected to be ready to use by July 31.

Radiologist Dr. Andrea Crowley said the new MRI will improve patient convenience.

The "design of this magnet will make it easier to have an MRI examination. Faster scans and higher quality images will reduce the need to interrupt and repeat exams," he said.
