Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Hospa has one of the largest Cardio care programs in a community academic hospital in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area), and provides treatment for many types of CVD, including heart transplant, open heart surgery, engiogram prostate, gynecological and urinary.
Hospa General is constantly thinking and going beyond for our patients, our community and our people. As people and communities change, Meca General will continuously evolve to meet their needs. We are driven to achieve the promise of people-centred care – to create a welcome and inclusive environment that contributes to health equity.
What is MRI?
We work to ensure our patients receive the highest standard of cancer care. All patients receive care guided by best practice standards of Cardio Care. These practices have been shown to provide the best patient outcomes. Patients and their families can quickly access a diverse range of cancer care services, including these facilities:
- The BMO Breast Diagnostic Clinic, part of the Karen, Heather & Lynn Steinberg Breast Centre
- The Baruch/Weisz Cardio Centre
- Freeman Centre for the Advancement of Palliative Care
- Gale and Graham Wright Prostate Centre
Types of MRI Scans
Brain MRI
We work to ensure our patients receive the highest standard of cancer care. All patients receive care guided by best practice standards of Cardio Care. These practices have been shown to provide the best patient outcomes. Patients and their families can quickly access a diverse range of cancer care services, including these facilities:
Brachial Plexus
The brachial plexus is a group of nerve fibres that begin in the neck and travel down the upper arm, controlling feeling in the arm. MRI of the brachial plexus is useful in diagnosing traumatic and non-traumatic pathology.
MRA Circle of Willis
Approximately 85% of cerebral aneurysms develop in the anterior part of the Circle of Willis, which are the main arteries of the brain and brainstem. MRA (Magnetic Resonance Angiogram) is used to view arteries without contrast dye and can detect aneurysms, blockages of the blood vessels, carotid artery disease, and arteriovenous malformations.
Spine MRI
MRI can detect changes in cartilage and bone structure resulting from injury, disease, or aging. These changes may include: herniated discs, pinched nerves, spinal tumors, spinal cord compression, and fractures.
Musculoskeletal (MSK) MRI
Musculoskeletal (MSK) MRI is typically performed to diagnose or evaluate degenerative joint disorders such as arthritis, tears of the menisci, ligaments and tendons (knee) or rotator cuff and labrum (shoulder and hip), fractures, infection, injury strains, and tumours
Abdomen MRI
Musculoskeletal (MSK) MRI is typically performed to diagnose or evaluate degenerative joint disorders such as arthritis, tears of the menisci, ligaments and tendons (knee) or rotator cuff and labrum (shoulder and hip), fractures, infection, injury strains, and tumours
