Many patients wonder why the cost of MRI in Germany is significantly higher than in other countries. Is it possible to perform this study at home and bring it with you?
The diagnostic method called magnetic resonance imaging allows you to see the structure of the patient's body from the inside and even examine the tissue structure in detail. At the same time, harmful X-ray radiation is not used at all, since the methodology is based on the action of a magnetic field, which is completely safe.
The equipment used in German clinics meets all the requirements of international safety standards, while providing a comfortable diagnostic experience for the most demanding patients.
Patients with claustrophobia, as well as those who are overweight, can undergo an MRI study in Germany using an open-circuit machine, receiving images of the same quality as when undergoing a study on a conventional machine.
German clinics also use ultra-high-speed computed tomography (CT), which allows you to obtain clear and maximally accurate images of the patient's internal organs on the monitor screen, without exposing them to unnecessary X-ray radiation due to the speed of the study. In addition, modern CT machines used by our doctors in Germany emit almost 40% less than standard machines used in other countries.
The high technology of CT and MRI has long become commonplace in German clinics, and the qualification of German doctors and their vast experience in recognizing pathological conditions on tomograph images give confidence that the diagnosis will be performed accurately.
Today, many centers in major cities around the world are trying to acquire high-quality equipment for MRI and CT diagnostic studies. Therefore, German medical specialists have also begun to accept patient studies performed on high-quality equipment. At the same time, German radiologists always review each tomographic image and write their own report to avoid errors in diagnoses and select the correct treatment methodology. German specialists working with MRI and CT images, as a rule, have a narrow specialization in a certain area of anatomy and know how to correctly recognize all anatomical nuances visualized on the images.
In some cases, especially with complex diagnoses, German doctors still ask for an additional study in Germany, for example, when preparing for a complex neurosurgical operation or an intervention to remove a tumor. After all, in such cases, coordinated work of all clinic departments is necessary to provide maximum assistance to the patient and help overcome the disease.
Also, if you have doubts after an MRI or CT study in your home country, you can always send the files for review to German radiologists.
