About Our MRI

Enhancing Orthopedic Care with Wide Bore MRI Technology

POA is pleased to announce the integration of the Wide Bore MRI machine into our diagnostic toolkit, bringing significant benefits to our patients. This advanced technology ensures a more comfortable and spacious experience during imaging procedures, alleviating concerns related to claustrophobia and anxiety. The wider design not only enhances patient comfort but also allows for high-resolution imaging of bones, joints, and soft tissues, contributing to more accurate and comprehensive diagnoses. At Peninsula Orthopedic Associates, our commitment to providing exceptional orthopedic care is underscored by the incorporation of the Wide Bore MRI machine, which stands as a testament to our dedication to both patient well-being and diagnostic precision.

Superior Imaging Power and Radiology Partnership

POA doctors conduct MRI procedures in-house and have immediate access to all the images. This allows our doctors to adjust and fine-tune their imaging protocols as needed. The orthopedic surgeons can thus view clearer and larger images for review, providing the best possible service for the patient. Finally, all the images are piped into each exam room automatically, giving the patient and doctor full digital access.

POA is partnered with the National Musculoskeletal Imaging radiology group, who are specialty and fellowship trained in reading MRI’s. Our partnership allows us to upload high definition images from POA’s MRI to the radiologists for interpretation immediately after scanning, with official interpretation returned back to us with 24 hours.

Our MRI system allows both your orthopedic surgeon and an expert radiologist to interpret the information very quickly. Within a day or two after your MRI, we have amassed an incredible amount of information about your joint.
