Just Dropping In for the MRI
A modular building was dropped onto its foundation behind NorthBay VacaValley Hospital on Nov. 12. In December it will become the home of the first stationary MRI on campus, operated by Solano Diagnostics Imaging.
The Toshiba Vantage Titan, Open-bore 1.5 Tesla (high field) MRI features quiet technology and high-definition scanning. It has the shortest magnet with the largest field of vision currently available in the industry. It's the same model that SDI has used in Fairfield since 2014, according to Adrian Riggs, assistant vice president of NorthBay Health Advantage.
Once installed, all inpatient and outpatient MRIs will be offered at both VacaValley Hospital and NorthBay Medical Center.>
