We inform you that we practice third-party payment. Our practice does not advance the cost of health insurance. A statement of fees will be given to you after each examination for your reimbursement claims. Your doctor is free to set his or her own fees. They may therefore be higher than the health insurance reimbursement rate.
In 2010, the Floréal Medical and Surgical Centre was equipped with a 3D MRI, the first establishment in France and the 3rd in the world to be equipped with a "new generation" machine. This MRI scanner produces 3D image sequences, enabling radiologists to make a more accurate diagnosis. It offers exceptional image quality and shorter examination times.
MRI, or Magnetic Resonance Imaging, is a technique that produces images of different parts of the human body using a powerful magnetic field (magnet) through which radiofrequency waves pass. This is a "non-invasive", non-irradiating technique (no X-rays), which allows better tissue characterisation of lesions.
The medical staff will check that there are no contraindications to carrying out this examination and will ask you to inform them if you are wearing a heart battery (pacemaker), heart valve or, more generally, any item containing iron (hair clips, staples, buttons, watch, keys, etc.).
The examination takes place lying on your back. To obtain clear images, you should remain perfectly still, with the bed moving gently inside the ring. The patient is generally alone in the examination room, but remains in constant contact with the medical staff via a microphone.
The examination takes around 20 minutes, including settling in. An intravenous injection is sometimes required for certain examinations. The MRI examination is painless but quite noisy. Claustrophobic patients should inform the medical team, who will make the necessary arrangements to ensure that the examination runs smoothly. As a precaution, the examination is not performed on pregnant women.
The images will be analysed by the radiologist. A written report will be sent to you with the images on a CD-ROM. Your results will also be available online on our website using a password that will be allocated to you.
