3T MRI scanning in Haywards Heath

Why choose Nuffield Health Haywards Heath Hospital for your 3T MRI scan?

Nuffield Health Haywards Heath Hospital operates a state-of-the-art, standalone MRI suite. The technologically advanced 3T MRI scanner is one of very few located across the South East and can be accessed throughout the week, from 8am to 8pm, giving patients more flexibility when booking appointments.

The additional strength of the 3T scanner allows it to produce higher image quality which is particularly relevant for examining the pathology of brains, spines, musculoskeletal conditions and prostates. 3T scanners are able to identify smaller lesions and anatomical structures than the more conventional 1.5T scanners.  

Our modern suite offers an improved all round patient experience, availability for more complex scans in a shorter timeframe and extremely high quality imaging.

3T scanners are also able to produce imaging more quickly, and this allows the operators to reduce the amount of time a patient has to spend inside the scanners bore. In combination with a wider bore, our 3T scanner is intended to make the patient experience more comfortable and quicker where possible. The high quality of our images also lowers the risk of distortion and reduces the risk of a need for repeat scans which can be time consuming and inconvenient for patients.  

You may feel nervous about your MRI scan, but we don’t want you to worry. Our experienced consultants and nurses in Haywards Heath are friendly and approachable, and can answer any questions that you may have regarding the scan.
