Videos of standing and high field MRI

There are two main types of MRI system - "high field" and "low field", each using a different type of magnet.

The Hallmarq standing equine MRI uses the low field type of magnet, installed so that the horse is scanned while standing up.  Watch a video showing how it works here ...

 

 

 

 

 

 

High field magnets are of the more usual tubular shape so the horse has to be anesthetised to fit in the magnet.  See a video here ...
