Common Conditions that get diagnosed:

A 3T Wide Bore MRI is a powerful diagnostic tool capable of detecting a wide range of diseases and conditions due to its high magnetic field strength and advanced imaging capabilities. Here are some key diseases and conditions that a 3T MRI can help detect here at Align Radiology in Laurel

Neurological Disorders

EPILEPSY: 3T MRI is superior to 1.5T MRI in detecting and characterizing structural brain abnormalities in patients with focal epilepsy. A study found that 3T MRI detected 65 of 74 cases, compared to 55 of 74 cases detected by 1.5T MRI, leading to better diagnosis and safer treatment. (ScienceDaily)

MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS (MS): 3T MRI provides high-resolution images that can identify early demyelinating lesions associated with MS, aiding in early diagnosis and monitoring disease progression.(PubMed)

BRAIN TUMORS: The enhanced resolution of 3T MRI allows for better visualization of brain tumors, including gliomas and metastases, facilitating accurate assessment and treatment planning.

Musculoskeletal Disorders

JOINT INJURIES: 3T MRI is effective in detecting soft tissue injuries such as ligament tears, cartilage damage, and muscle strains, particularly in the knee, shoulder, and hip joints.

SPINAL DISORDERS: High-resolution imaging of the spine using 3T MRI can identify herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease, aiding in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

Oncological Applications

PROSTATE CANCER:  Multiparametric 3T MRI is used to assess prostate cancer, providing detailed images that help in staging the disease and guiding biopsy procedures.

Other Applications

ABDOMINAL IMAGING: 3T MRI is employed to evaluate conditions such as liver cirrhosis, pancreatic tumors, and inflammatory bowel disease, offering detailed images of abdominal organs.

PELVIC IMAGING: In gynecological and urological assessments, 3T MRI aids in detecting conditions like fibroids, ovarian cysts, and bladder tumors.
