Offering both, the new Siemens 1.5 Tesla Espree, Open Bore or the GE 1.5 Tesla Excite MRI units, Kern Radiology can schedule the patient’s MRI exam in the unit that will provide the best possible exam for each patient.  Patients who are claustrophobic will appreciate the larger opening with more elbowroom, while the larger patients can now be scanned even if they are up to 500 pounds.  People appreciate the outside windows and sound absorbing wall panels in the MRI suite at the San Diams facility.
