The Arkansas Spine and Pain approach to MRI

At Arkansas Spine and Pain, we're not just about adding advanced technology to our clinics; we're about making your healthcare experience as comfortable and informative as possible. If you're gearing up for an MRI scan or just curious about what it involves, let's talk about how Arkansas’s first fully weight-bearing GSCAN Brio machine is changing the game in medical imaging and pain management only at Arkansas Spine and Pain.

MRI: More Than Just Another Scan

An MRI, or Magnetic Resonance Imaging,  is a fantastic tool within the medical space. It's a non-invasive way to get a clear picture of what's going on inside your body. Whether it's to check on joints, muscles, or something deeper, MRI scans are crucial in providing us with the detailed images we need to create a comprehensive pain management plan.

Prepping for Your MRI Scan: What to do.

We know that coming in for an MRI scan can be a bit daunting, so here are some tips to make it a breeze:

·     Dress Comfortably: Loose clothing without metal is the way to go.

·     Leave the Jewelry Behind: Remember to remove the jewelry and other metallic items.

·     Keep Us in the Loop: Got any implants or a pacemaker? Please tell our team beforehand.

·     Stay Calm and Relaxed: Feeling nervous? Deep breaths can help images come out crystal clear.

Meet the GSCAN Brio: Your New Ally in Accurate Diagnoses

As we have been hinting at prior, our latest addition, the GSCAN Brio MRI machine, is a leap forward in MRI diagnostics. Its open design is perfect for easing those claustrophobic jitters, and its weight-bearing MRI capability means we can catch conditions that might be missed in a traditional scan, which is especially useful for diagnosing musculoskeletal issues for pain management.

Why Weight-Bearing MRI is a Game-Changer

By allowing weight-bearing scans, we can get a real-life picture of what's happening in your body, leading to more accurate diagnoses. This will allow your pain management specialist to pinpoint the exact locations of your pain and design a treatment plan specific to your needs with better success.
