Practicing Emergency Medicine, I order and review lots of Ultrasounds, X-rays and CTs, and only rarely do MRI’s. I however find it interesting if field of view is much smaller, yet they are doing one’s entire head, neck, torso in 30 minutes or so.
I’ve found conflicted information on this topic - if someone has implants or is obese then a 3 Tesla might not be best choice - however this discussion - which may be incorrect would seem to support the 3T finding abnormalities that are smaller than a lower Tesla machine. Happy to be educated, but looks like the imaging centers and radiologists don’t necessary agree?
