The staff there were very compassionate. They took the time to explain everything to me. If you have to get a PET/CT scan they are the ones to go to.

TECHNOLOGY

Our Springfield location has three high-field, open-bore MRI scanners.

3T Siemens Verio delivers exceptional image quality in a more comfortable setting. Its wide, open-bore design provides additional space to help patients feel more at ease during their exam, while advanced 3T technology produces highly detailed images to support accurate diagnoses.

3T GE Signa Pioneer provides exceptional image quality in a more comfortable setting. Its wide, open-bore design provides additional space for patients, helping many feel more at ease during their exam. This system includes A.I.-powered imaging software to produces highly detailed images while helping reduce scan times.

1.5T high-field open bore Siemens Espree, is the gold-standard for MRI imaging with a high-field strength of 1.5T. This system is an open-bore model for maximum comfort.

What is A.I. Powered Imaging?
Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) is a new technique used on many of Shields’ MRI machines. By removing excess noise and artifacts, it creates sharper and clearer images, all while reducing scan times. AI significantly enhances exams—so you spend less time in the scanner and get more-precise results.
