Welcome to
the New
Pediatric Imaging Website This
site is devoted to Parents of Children cared for at Children's
Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston and the Residents of Emory
University Department of Radiology
Our MRI equipment
includes a 3-tesla
Siemens scanner and a newly purchased state-of-the-art 1.5 T scanner. The resolution, speed and sensitivity improves
significantly with 3.0T equipment and allows detailed
resolution required in our patient population. There
are expanded evening and weekend times available for
scanning to allow for the increased work-load. Check
with us for possible times for procedures during evenings
and weekends.
A full-time MRI
physicist provides the support needed to continually monitor
the sequences and to add the important role of scientific
investigation.
