Magnetic Resonance Imaging Services in Bakersfield
We offer patients the full range of on-site MRI testing to aid our highly trained and specialized physicians in diagnosis and treatment management. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures use a magnetic field, radio waves and a computer to create detailed, cross-sectional images of organs, soft tissues, bone and virtually all other internal body structures. We also offer patients cardiac MRI, or “cardiovascular magnetic resonance” (CMR) imaging, a method used to help measure and evaluate the structures and function of the heart.
