We realise that patients are often apprehensive when coming for a scan. We have aimed to provide facilities and staff for you to make this process as comfortable as possible for you. Please explore the website, which addresses most of the common questions. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any other questions, or would like to discuss your scan in greater detail.
We continuously monitor you during your scan to ensure your safety and comfort. You can communicate with us at any time from the scan room. Your heart rate and breathing will be monitored continuously. Our staff are trained in CPR, in the unlikely event it be required.
Being a single-modality site, we are quiet and uncluttered. The care, comfort, and confidentiality of your patients is paramount to us.
Most patients find an MRI scan easy to tolerate, but some patients may feel uncomfortable, and require sedation. If you think you may need sedation, please let us know in advance.
Our consultant radiologists are all subspecialty trained. All studies are supervised, tailored to each patient, and reported on the same day. Your study will then be second-reported by an independent consultant, before a final report is issued.
Our scanner, a Phillips 3.0T machine, was specifically chosen to provide advanced imaging tools such as spectroscopy, perfusion imaging, quantitative volumetric imaging, tractography, and functional MRI, and very high quality MR angiography.
Trinity only employs dedicated MRI radiographers, with special skills in advanced neuroimaging. Their detailed knowledge allows them to tailor your examination to your specific needs, adjusting the scan technique case by case.
Our driveway is at the end of our building, next to Megs, with a vertical Red and White ‘Client Parking’ sign. (see above photo). There are two driveways together, take the undercover driveway. Our car parks are clearly marked with Trinity MRI signs, located on both sides of the parking area. There is direct access to Trinity MRI through the carpark.
Our reception team will ask you to complete any required paperwork, and make you comfortable in our reception area before getting you changed into a gown for your scan.
We have comfortable seating in our light, spacious reception area. Your support person may wait here while you have your scan.
Once changed, or having received sedation if necessary, you will be shown to our comfortable, private waiting area. This room is equipped with audio and visual equipment, and provides a relaxing and peaceful place to prepare you for the scan.
