New York Spine Institute’s brand new GE 1.5T system provides our physicians with high quality, detailed pictures of anatomy and pathology, helping them to examine a variety of musculoskeletal disorders.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a valuable tool for diagnosing a variety of conditions. This test is safe, painless, and non-invasive making it ideal for many patients. It uses magnets and radio waves to produce detailed images of the body which can help detect certain diseases. As opposed to other imaging methods like x-ray, ultrasound, or CT (Computed Tomography) MRI’s can show a broader range of conditions.*

While undergoing your MRI you will be treated with complete comfort and care, offering you your choice of music, earplugs, and a sleeping mask to make the environment as calm as possible.

We are also equipped with a digital radiography department. With this department the captured images are digitized and our radiologists can analyze bone and some soft tissue anatomy for diagnosis. We also provide Long Length Imaging (LLI) for in depth scoliosis testing.

*The effectiveness of diagnosis and treatment will vary by patient and condition. New York Spine Institute does not guarantee certain results.
