Cardiac MRI at Chenies Mews Imaging Centre
Cardiac MRI is commonly regarded to be the most accurate non-invasive method of assessing the structure and function of the heart, often providing valuable information which may not be achievable using other imaging methods such as x-ray or ultrasound.
Cardiac MRI can provide clinical information which enables early diagnosis of abnormalities of the heart and guide physicians in decision making for effective treatment.
During your visit to the Chenies Mews Imaging Centre, we will use the latest scanning technology available and powerful computers to create a clear picture of your heart, the heart valves, major blood vessels and surrounding structures.
