MRI Chair

Prostate cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in men. The MRI Chair is dedicated to improving the quality and experience of the prostate exam in order to encourage men to have this life-saving procedure. MR imaging, with its excellent soft-tissue differentiation, provides high-resolution views of the prostate and surrounding structures. Enabled by developing magnet technology, this chair rewrites MR design. With its soft fabric and music, comfortable form and position, it speaks of a living room, reducing anxiety, increasing comfort and improving the chance of annual exams.
